It rained here in Leics most of yesterday.
It started again this evening, around 5.45, this is really solid stuff
now.
Anyone not got any yet?


Rain? What's rain? At least the lawns don't need mowing - they are brown

Your situation sounds similar to my friend in rural Germany.
They've had incredible temperatures for a while now, 36C+, and no rain for
ages. She says "you can almost hear the grass going brown" and that her

I wish I could send you all some of mine, we've had even more today,
torrential, with thunder.
