Don't go up on the moor tonight..........
Bit of a joke between me and Raymond that subject line but it's blowing up
a nasty here. It's very hard to imagine any summer coming in now. It has rained on and off almost all day, sun shone a little towards 5pm and now we're back to serious rain and strong winds. -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon (remove weeds from address) 'We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.' |

Walked a Woodside dog down to Plym Bridge from Cann Woods yesterday and the river was so full from the overnight rain on Monday. Never seen it flow so strongly and wash over things that are normally on dry land |

If you go out on the moor tonight It's safer to stay at home... Now I'll have that tune in my head all day! It's cool and gloomy this morning in the northeastern American colonies... good day to do all that stuff it's been hot to do. Cheers!

Never seen it flow so strongly and wash over things that are normally on dry land I'm going to take the dogs and the grand daughter up to Spitchwick this morning, just while there's a glimmer of sunshine. It will be very interesting to see what the river's doing there - if we can get near it! It absolutely hurled it down all night and the wind is still pretty lively. I'm more than ever thankful that we've abandoned our idea of a tour of Britain and have opted for two weeks in Turkey instead. It's sad but the idea of peering through windscreen wipers the whole time isn't very alluring. It's not like that all over britain! |

It came out fine for a few hours around midday, good enough to play in the breakers but too rough for a proper swim |

If we put it off much longer we'll need a chauffeur and a crane to get us out of the car. It's a big disappointment because there is just so much I've never seen but do want to visit. -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon (remove weeds from address) 'We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.' |
