What is happening to this country's weather?
We are geting so used to the wet etc that we don't even comment when
we have 1.75 inches of rain followed a few days later by another 0.75
together with winds of of around 35 mph for over 24 hours with gusts
of almost 50 mph.
I am begining to ask myself why I am bothering trying to grow things
outside, with the wife being in hospital for the 5th time in 9 months.
This time she had gone on holiday to Trinidad to join up with her
daughter who lives in Toronto as they have friends there, she was
involved in a car accident on August 18th, she broke her right Fibia,
though they didn't put the leg in plaster so she had a week till she
could get a flight back to the UK.
I picked her up from Gatwick and brought her straight back to our
local hospital here in South Wales, where she has been ever since.
I am seriously asking myself why at my age I am doing all this work
with no help.
