Ditto!

had just enough rain this evening to almost wet the road surface. Forecast blue skies for the next 2 days - great for the solar power but my spuds are wilting

well, ok, you can have the rain today, and tomorrow if you want, but please some sunshine for us for our camping in the new forrest this weekend? then you can have the rain back!

We have not had any decent rain for over two months now, just sprinkles that dont even wet the ground, parched is what we are!!! I am afraid the fruit on the trees probably wont swell unless we get a decent downpour for at least a few hours and no sign of that coming our way

And that will be a shame, my trees are loaded with tiny fruit

Glad you're coming down our way Tazbabe the forest is lovely this time of year but watch the ticks, loads of them this year stuff not working on my dogs and i'm pulling them off by hand. Also a bit cold at night still for us delicate southerners

Not a spot of rain since before mid. March.  Because of the wetland here grass is still good, but pond has gone and stream is down to a small trickle.  Rain would be nice.

Well in April we were wishing for rain, and we got some, and it was enough (we don't need much around here - very wet ground)

Then a week ago BH started to talk about cutting grass.     So it's all our fault, we're very sorry.   

BH has a plan that we should emigrate to Africa or somewhere where they have drought.  We would buy as much land as we could afford.  The rain would follow us as we appear to be rain gods.  The land would bloom and blossom and make us heaps of dosh.

Any more summers like the last 4, I'm going to take him up on that...

[feldar]

That's ok, we will blame you then. So come down south and wish us some rain!!

Sally-in-N  you dont happen to have visited Australia and Spain in the last 12 months?

thanks for the warning about the ticks, kinda helped me decide something!

usually we take our dogs camping with us, they love it, but now that we have steve's mum living with us, she said why not leave the dogs behind..i have been swithering...but i think we will leave them here.

we had a lot of ticks last summer, poor things suffered a bit with them, no point in starting it off again!
