We've just had our first rain for a fortnight :-))

Five minutes worth :-))

Still, there's plenty of lightning going on to the south of us, so hopefully
a bit more (but not as much as Yorkshire got)

It has just made it to the Watford area. Blessed sound of me not
having to water the allotment later!

   Ah well. It was finally dry enough to cut the grass here, though the
ground is still so wet  from the weekend storm that sitting on the grass
is still out of the question.

   Does anyone else think Britain's north/south climates are more
different than they used to be? Whatever's going on in the middle bit?

I'm in the middle bit (Lancashire) and in my 40 years I can say I've noticed
a change in climate, mainly from hot and dry summers and bitterly cold wet
winters in the past, to hot, wet summers and mildly cold but largely dry
winters.

I've worked outside for most of the past 24 years so I do notice these
things...I reckon we get more rain in June than we do in December.
