Heating on again today! at least there's sun this morning

 

[tonys]

Another day, another cold drizzly morning. I'd be tempted to stick the fire on last few days if I hadn't just had the chimney swept!

Which place though? You have Scotland and Norfolk

 

[EH75]

That was in Norfolk, it was about 8 degrees the other morning.

 

[Dis86]

What's sunshine?

I vaguely remember a bright glowy thing in the sky

Ok, not good really for the time of year.

I actually put the heating on yesterday. It's the middle of ******* June. Please dont be a crappy summer.

Just looked at the weather chart and its light rain turning to thunder later, I don't mind a bit of rain but definitely not a thunder storm

 

[ColdAsIce]

Raining all morning and quite heavy too. Fun stuff to kick off the euros this evening.

That's ridiculous, ah wait a minute I gave my heated throw a blast before work while watching the news it was 17c but maybe my sluggish early morning circulation and damp weather was the reason

Let us check in with Honey to see what the weather is like...

Nope, it is still miserable, I'll sit on the sofa with a crochet blanket my mum made (specifically for her!).

Took the dog for a walk in what was to be termed light rain within the time I was out so put my coat on. Yes it did rain but to be honest I had more sweat from wearing the coat than it rained. Just have to see if the thunderstorm hits us or not.

I think we're in for a rubbish normal British summer. Shame. It is genuinely depressing though as you feel like there's less to look forward to. All those summer events/bbqs/parties/days out etc are all just killed when it's cold and damp. Before you know it we've hit September and suddenly Autumn is upon us and next doors fence has blown over again.

Yeah, it's really crappy. May and June are usually great as it begins to warm up and you have the longer evenings, but the cold wind and constant rain is making it very hard to do anything outside. Hopefully it warms up as we go into July and August but the days are already getting shorter. With last year's late summer being so bad it feels like we've had awful weather for nearly a year straight.

And we've got the GE to add to the gloom

Grey again...

Everyday just at grey......

 

[Jokester]

Still like winter here, grey and quite dark even for lunch time. At least it’s stopped snowing now.

 

[Kelt]

Hardly been out on my bike this year.

... but the days are already getting shorter...

20th June is the longest day of this year no?

 

[Blackvault]

Yes, it is the 20th of June.
