When will this blasted rain stop?
The last 2 days have given us 1.35 inches of rain and its still coming
in some very heavy bursts.
I should have got my planting finished this week, instead I've just
managed to get around 280 dahlias planted.
Just want to win the Euro lottery tonight and I could get away from
the rain.........some hope.

We have had rain too but nothing to moan about, it's this wind that is
annoying me, always seems to be a wind these days.

It's been like that for some years here. Most of the time there is too
much wind for us oldies to go sailing.
There's a local annual regatta taking place. Yesterday boats were
becalmed.

Hi Baz,
The increase in wind speed is due world wide deforestation. The more
trees we cut down the stronger will be the wind velocity.
Trees act as a buffer to wind speed across the land, no trees no buffer,
sadly this is happening all over the world.
