Another wet, windy day starts! I'm beginning to wonder if this is
inevitable Devon County Show weather but friends who called in yesterday
after a trip to Cornwall, told us that if ever we have a drought, all we
have to do is invite them to stay!


Raining again here in Derbyshire.

I'm glad of it for the opportunity to fill the water butts, but the
weather bods on the radio are starting to talk about floods already,
after a week or so of largely intermittent rain!

My theory is that we've shuffled the months - we had May last month, so
now April's here :-)


The year's going backwards, as someone has said! Today, we've had pouring
rain, showers, glimmers of sunshine, some wind, pouring rain and now it's
just sort of neutral.


We've already had more than the average amount of rain for May in West
Cornwall, and we're only half way through the month (over an inch on
Saturday). But we did need it, and if it soaks the soil in depth to
help us get through what may be another dry summer, I'm not
complaining.
