Morning all.

Much cooler this morning .

Weather forecast all over the place. Last night the Met Office said it was going to be dry all day. This morning there's a 70% chance of rain at 9:00am with hail () at lunchtime. Temperature "only" reaching low to mid 20's by mid afternoon. Nothing showing on the Accuweather radar yet and it's usually pretty good but their forecast itself isn't as reliable as the Met Office one.

As they say... time will tell.

All quiet today - grandson went back home last night .

Pleased to hear you're feeling better Bob.

Take care everyone.

Morning . . . . again! Got up when the lovely guys working in the car park museum fired up the bulldozer at 7:30 They've also got this naff security thing set up in their compound, detects anyone near it, trouble is also detects anyone nearby walking their dog! Sounds an alarm (same as the red alert alarm in the original Star Trek ) then a recorded message telling anyone to bugr off or words to that effect. Really gets on your wick after you've heard it for the umpteenth time that day

Dry at the moment, well when I say dry its not raining just now. Supposed to stay dry(ish) until early afternoon then thundery showers for the rest of the day.

Freezer cleaning when I work myself up to it. Defrosted the chest freezer in the garage yesterday so got that to clean out.

Can't be any greener than a new boating fan can it? Enjoy the rain.

Got the two back lawns mowed & harvested another bucket of taters before the rains started right on forecast, No thunder as such yet though.

Ah . . . . that's why the rain hadn't started again yet, it was waiting for me to go out. In the middle of filling the bird feeders and the heavens opened.
