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

Bank holiday weather ?
No change here..
Except I've been instructed to put my Sunday Speedos on.
I didn't realise that it is Sunday.
No threat of any decorating.. The paint would dry on the brush.
Must go and check that the G&T making supplies are in the fridge...
And the tall glasses are in the freezer.
It's all go..!

Chin chin Paul, just poured ours, the skies cleared about 3.00 pm and it’s wall to wall blue now, getting ready for another ☀️ day tomorrow 👍👍
 
Gently sizzling here under ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️ as the temperature moves gently beyond 20 degrees with enough breeze to make it very pleasant, better stop I’ve left the smug filter in the house .........
You can have mine, Dave..
I'm hoping not to need it ..
If we're all going to have a splendid summer..
I can't find the Portuguese words for hosepipe ban.
If they get 5 consecutive rainless days in Altrincham..
They start unpacking the standpipes..
Balmy 22 degrees as the sun goes down.
We're under a fresh new moon. Glass of iced grog, Sudokus and Rachmaninoff on the radio.
Mustn't grumble.

If this settled weather keeps up Paul I‘m going to find a recording of cicadas and dream ..............

They are quiet at the moment.. lots of visiting birds are looking for a meal.
Another couple of weeks will make a difference.
It's amazing how the noise starts with just one piping up.. Within seconds, the whole hillside is a massed choir .. It rises to an ear shattering crescendo, then an orderly diminuendo, as if there's a conductor.
It brings to mind a football crowd chant.. Who starts and directs them.?

From August it gets quieter during the day and we get solos ,after dark, through to about February.
I'll try to post some audio for you.

Weather.. ?
Nothing surprising.. just a perfect Easterly breeze at regular intervals.
 
It's a pleasantly warm 22°C in Hertfordshire, though there is a very thin and patchy layer of white cloud slowly building.
A gentle breeze makes it a joy to be out relaxing in the fresh air.
Lockdown not withstanding, life feels good.

Well it started cloudy and warm in Cheshire, so a chance to get some garden jobs done at the daughter‘s house, managed to get away by 3.00 for a few hours fishing and the skies cleared by late afternoon to leave us with a lovely evening. The trout weren’t too interested in my offerings although one did succumb, not that it mattered it was just nice to be out enjoying the countryside and listening to a cuckoo in the distance. Wall to wall sunshine for the next few days and no rain forecast for the next 14 days .......
