we played Singin' in the Rain and guess what?..................

Pleasant enough day here in The Smoke - light to gentle north-wester, three-quarters cloud cover (cumulus with stratocumulus "infill"), temperature up to 19 C. Still a couple of degrees below the norm - which looks like setting the pattern for this "summer", but I'll settle for that: heatwaves usually mean polluted air and sleepless nights in this part of the world. I'm just hoping the predicted "sharp showers" fail to materialise tomorrow, as yours truly and another jazz afficionado plan to walk 6 miles of the wooded hills of S Essex.
Just went out and bought a couple of fuschias to plant in two of our three neglected pretend-earthenware pots, plus a trayful of multicoloured lobelia to trail around their bases, and a couple of Nemesia Carmina for the two real glazed pots someone living nearby had put out for collection by the council, can you believe? Should look nice beside the two potted pellargoniums.

Hope the two will not prove to be related ...
e.g. brass arrangement of Blow the Wind Southerly... the Western Wind mass... &c. &c....
