...much of a day for gardening today. It's lashed down with rain all
night and now it's blowing a hooligan. It was supposed to have gone
through in the night but little sign of it doing so at nearly 10.30am.

It hasn;t arrived here yet. The wind is picking up but no rain yet.

So finally the drought is over in your part of the world? )

Just a bit! We always listen to the weather forecasts but really, I do
wonder why we bother at times. This seems to be such a micro-climate
that what's happening 2 miles away isn't happening here.

We've noticed that the weather is very often different between the north and
south entrances of the tunnels under Amsterdam harbour.

Yes, happens here all the time - cross the A38 and the weather is
different one side to the other.
