32 degrees again! No rain for days and water pressure is so low that the tank doesn't fill up overnight. It's a good job we have a well (it's mainly limestone soil).

There's quite a lot of vinyards in Wales now - the Romans had quite extensive viniculture when they were here. Generally it's German varieties of grape.
It didn't rain yesterday in the end, although there was some overnight. Today has been grey, dull, not particularly cold, just starting to drizzle now.
It's funny about suddenly switching from salad to a cooked meal once the skies grow grey, I've done just the same, although I accept it's purely psychological, cold food give you the same energy but suddenly hot food seems more appetising!

Wet weather has really set in here, with thick drizzle now falling, the temperature not rising higher than 12.5 C, and the cloud base intermittently at around 400 feet. The weather circulation has got itself into one of those periodic ruts which have become more the norm of late, grinding to a halt with a frontal system straddling us with insufficient wind to move it on. Blocking systems are only OK if the rain-producing systems are blocked elsewhere!

It was actually warm enough for short sleeves (though not shorts...yet). Tomorrow damp, cool weather is moving back in. Too bad I had to spend the best part of the day at the periodontist's office having my gums "scaled."

A miserable, grey, murky, cold day with some drizzly showers. The temperature gauge at the railway station read 14 degrees but the chill wind must have taken the real temperature down into single figures. Berghaus and heating well and truly on."The sound is the handwriting of the conductor" - Bernard Haitink

Yesterday wasn't too bad. So far, as the day has gone on the weather here has improved, bits of blue now and sun, warm at 16.6° and the black clouds seem to have gone (there is a yellow rain warning from 2pm onwards so plenty of time still for the Heavens to open although the Met Office did say there was uncertainty as to where exactly would get it ...... ) Then it seems we may have a more settled weekend, I hope so as I have more plants to collect tomorrow.
