Weather Report..................

Things cooling down for a few days this week, only 24 degrees max today. Still unbroken sunshine but could have a max as low as 21 on Wednesday. We’ll wrap up

Managed a delayed getaway for the fishing trip due to illness with grandkids. Left a misty Cheshire and enjoyed a sunshine run down to the Shropshire/Staffordshire border. Cool when the sun went in but the trout didn’t seem to mind Nice end to the afternoon .........

A frosty start but dry in Chorley

It rained so much in Wales for the last 4 days if aquaplaning was an Olympic sport I would be up there for at least a bronze but we are now safely tucked up in Wiltshire

The Thames estuary was a delight today. We walked the 7080 feet of hardwood planking known as Southend Pier to the end and back with lovely views across the river to Kent and along the river towards London:



I was as surprised as anyone to find Chris (Edina) had followed us there:



Unfortunately the 'Cockle Sheds' at Leigh-on-Sea had run out of the traditional Estuarine delicacy of curried whelks and chips.
I'll be returning to Leigh on Wednesday so with luck they'll be back on the menu by then. Otherwise we'll have to make do with a visit to Patisserie Valerie, Southend on Sea.
(With apologies to Annie for doing so without her).

Heavy dew at sunup.
Soon burnt off and all the indications are that is going to be a scorcher.
Then I noticed the weather map on Graham's post .
We're due for some rain.., evidently.
Checking my local website , it forecasts showers now..
I'm going to follow my instincts,
Shorts, sandals, sunglasses and a walk in the hills.
If that brings it on, we'll be very happy.

Minus 8, Annie ?
That's a balmy spring day in Queensbury. People might think that you're going soft..!
Don't bother with the heating.. just open the fridge door and let that warmer air out.

We are having unseasonably cold weather in the desert. Last night we were driven inside by 7 o’clock by the falling temperatures. Should only get to 26 degrees today and 21 tomorrow, with chilly nights. Should be back to normal with temperatures in the 30s by weekend. Unbroken sunshine at least

Today started bright and sunny here in Hertfordshire.
So I cleared the drive of a significant pile of leaves.......

By 11 it was cloudy and cold. We got about 25 pitters and 24 patters. Then nothing.
Yesterday , in the coffee shop, someone asked if it was officially Winter. I explained about the under 16 degree rule..
I checked my phone , it showed 11 degrees.
I joyfully ordered a large brandy.
When we came out, it was a pleasant 23 degrees . Then I realised, I'd been standing under the air conditioner, when inside . I felt so guilty.
This morning, on the terrace, it was certainly cooler than yesterday.
So I poured myself a domestic double, ..
It's not all bad news.
