Still lovely sun out for us but it seems to deteriorate by the afternoon

I've been trying to mow my lawn all last week! It was never dry enough when I was around to do it
Off to Oz for a couple of weeks soon. It'll be a jungle when I get back if I cant do it before then. And more rain is forcasted early this week too.
I'm looking forward to Oz's winter tbh, which from experience, is better than our summer!

Sounds like you need to move. How's about we swap? 19.3c in my living room and you get the joys of living in Stoke On Trent.

Well I was very negative about Dewsbury in a recent post but there are still places I enjoy here , I always feel based here I had to travel to get somewhere nice but in Cornwall I am surrounded by natural beauty , the traffic here is horrendous as well , I wouldn't come back to live here , no way
I am, it's bloody July and this weather blows.

The South Pennines of West Yorkshire are as beautiful as anywhere inland in Cornwall 
Edit: Dewsbury and Wakey less so

Yeah this is what I mean about the travelling to find a good place where I can just walk from the house and up the Tors or cycle to Padstow on the camel trail.The South Pennines of West Yorkshire are as beautiful as anywhere inland in Cornwall

Wakey is ok for me as I go to Pugneys and newmiller dam.
Train travel is easier here though as Bodmin parkway is in the middle of nowhere,
Take that negativity to the it’s too hot thread please. You’re breaching the no moaning about the heat rule.indoors has reached 25c now
Moaning about the summer weather being too cold is allowed

Its the opposite problem here havn't mowed the lawn in at least a month its as parched as the outback and about as dead lookingI've been trying to mow my lawn all last week! It was never dry enough when I was around to do it

All beautiful regions have their sesspits. I think Devon is absolutely beautiful, especially the north and the coast east of Dartmoor, but the biggest city Plymouth is a total chavvy, drug ridden ****holeThe South Pennines of West Yorkshire are as beautiful as anywhere inland in Cornwall

I would like to remind you that you said no moaning about the weather not the heat or cold
"I’m starting this thread because I’m getting fed up of reading posts about people complaining of heatstroke every time a ray of sun appears.
So this thread is a moan free zone about the 2024 summer weather (weather of 2022 being a possible exception).
Although it’s summer, I still feel like I’m starting it before summer as it’s been so bloody awful and it doesn’t look like much of an improvement right into July. Still, weather can change rapidly and long term forecasts are very often just a load of guess work.
So if you want to discuss the summer weather in a positive eskimo free zone, this is the thread for you."

I know that feeling we won’t be going away next year as we need to sort the garden out so funds going towards that. Hopefully get something in 2026.At least you will get to go away on holiday!
Feel pity for those of us who can't afford to get away and the British summer is all we have
It’s just getting beyond a joke now.
If we could pack up, and move to Rhodes or Florida tomorrow I’d do it in a heartbeat.
Right, OP has been updated so the confusion is now over and the rules are set from henceforthI would like to remind you that you said no moaning about the weather not the heat or cold
