Remind me why I wanted rain?
Hi,
I know that we have had too little rain, and the crops are struggling, and the lawn still looks like it has been Naplamed, but wouldn't some gentle overnight rain have been enough? All those pretty 'once in a lifetime' displays of autumn leaves are being blown off as the trees bend from vertical to horizontal. And there is worse to come. Make it stop a little? Please? Whooooooooooooooooooo!! Dave R -- |

Please? Whooooooooooooooooooo!! Dave R and at least it showed me which gutters were in need of emptying (of moss and leaves that is). Unfortunately it was all of them........

Well I was lifting dahlias day before yesterday (Saturday), and despite
having had over 3 inches of rain they were still coming up clean and almost dry. Don't know how they will be to morrow after another inch and a half + -- David Hill Abacus nurseries www.abacus-nurseries.co.uk |

Don't know how they will be to morrow after another inch and a half + Suburban Surrey reports : Saturday morning conditions - Ground which I turned over last week has had a good soaking and is wet down as deep as I care to look. Ground which has lain undistrubed all summer is only showing dampness for the first 1.5 to 2 inches. I am hoping to see it wetter now since both Saturday and Sunday nights delivered considerably more rain. |

We've had just over 4 inches of rain and winds of up to 70 mph in the last
few days. This morning I took the camera out and took a few pics, posted on alt.binaries.pictures.gardens under "November colour" was also lifting dahlias this afternoon and the soil still isn't wet, just moist, still falling off easily. -- David Hill Abacus nurseries www.abacus-nurseries.co.uk |

We do get to notice such benefits, especially as many of us use a system of downloaded (and uploaded) packets for offline processing. You tend to get a bit ipssde-fof if you receive twenty or thirty Svens in a download innit. -- Rusty Hinge http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/hi-fi/ |
