Stormy Weather

[marthe]

No pining S_A. As to pollution levels in London, really? At this time of year? I'm glad that the distant hills are visible in the more freshly scented air! Our weather is heading downhill after two days of sunshine. Clouds and rain are forecast for the weekend.

A dreadful dull start to the day with spitty rain – not as forecast and annoying as I was intending to begin decorating first thing, but the light is so bad just now. Lots more blossom appearing including the plum trees and against the misty greyness of the sky the white flowers of a neighbour’s greengage are appearing somewhat ghostly. The London fog sounded awful but was surprised to see the Defra reading for here on Thursday was a 6 (moderate), someone told me they can remember peasoupers in Worcestershire in the early 60s which sounds nonsensical to me!

I’ve been absent from the MB (it’s ok, I’ve got a note from my Mum) for a week due to being in an internet free zone. Which is alright but makes me realise I’m the only person on the planet without a hand-held i-device!

Hello anna! Good to see everything ok! Been much missed! :(

Rather a cold and overcast day today. Where's all the warm weather!?!?!? SA?

...Where's all the warm weather!?!?!?...

Here.

(Actually, it's too hot. It's nearly 9 in the evening and it's still 30 degrees C.]

Good to see you're back, Anna. You were conspicuous by your absence.

I'm glad to see it's hot somewhere, Pab. Here it's overcast, misty, and cold. Temp about 8º C. It's been like that all week. Hardly any rain, just very grey and depressing.

Horrible, filthy, dank, dreech day here in Ultima Thule, with even a bit of an edge in the 'breeze'.

You're not! ...and it's been a misty, drizzly day here with heavier rain this evening.

Tried to rain down here, in the mists of West Sussex!

Raining, grey and miserable. Vivaldi is helping to lift the spirits (Four Seasons).

Too hot (31 degrees, with high humidity). Ernest Farrar (The Forsaken Merman - odd piece) is performing a similar function.

He was from Lewisham, south London

Any port in a storm, I suppose

...Any port in a storm, I suppose

Do you mean the music? Or Lewisham?
