On the Essex coast (what is euphemistically called the Tendring
Peninsular), probably the best weather in the country because we face
south. Our rainfall last night might have struggled to a centimetre
but I doubt it. Going into the garden this morning there are places
where the rain does not seem to have penetrated at all - does this
mean I should do some pruning? Incidently we watched your thunderstorm
last night, my cat was very unimpressed. Bright and sunny again this
morning, though I understand it rained in Colchester.

If things get any drier I might have to buy a camel!
I live in Bedfordshire, as usual we have missed a lot of it but still have had a useful amount.

Since the heatwave finished at the end of june (Well 2nd July) we have

summer
Yet they expect us to believe everything they say about global warming....errrr sorry I forgot, since global warming stopped in 2001 they've renamed it climate change.
