I don't know where you are but it has been very dry here for weeks and as
they don't like dry perhaps it's suffering from lack of water. I've been
watering mine for weeks.

Nick watered the whole allotment yesterday, which is why by midnight and it
appears mostly through the night, it has been piddling it down.

We've just had a lorry in and the driver said it was raining in
Taunton. Here we have blue sky and the odd fluffy white cloud. A bit
of rain and then stop would be lovely!

Over in my little corner of Essex it was absolutely pidding it down when I
went to bed, and didn't sound like it had any plan of stopping. This
morning it was grey and looked like it was thinking of raining again. And
when we landed in London it was damp and mizzley.

daybreak.

Which corner of Essex, Vicky? Ray comes from Upshire - lovely bit of
the county.

Old Harlow, near the Herts border.

It's very pretty there and sufficiently far from London!

Sufficiently far to give me a pain of a commute. :-(

Had a light shower over night, well I did clean the car yesterday, but it
wasn't enough to penetrate the ground here whereas just a few miles away
they seemed to have had significantly more rain. Perhaps I should start
growing Cacti!
