We actually have sun and low twenties temps in Manchester, I thought it was going to one long grey year of continual winter weather and winter temps

Did heavy rain/thundery atmosphere cause loss of TV reception over there as it does here?
Yes

Yes, what a shock, the highest river levels 500 years! The world has gone mad...a friend in Spain has just had her windscreen shattered by hailstones!

Its been nice here on the west coast but not quite as nice as that. I think it might be time for summer uniform.

what a delicious thought, I haven't had a Pimms and Perrier for ever...yum! We've had a 'bit' of sun here, and 19 degrees, and I cut the lawn last night....I sound like the sort of person who thoroughly 'deserves' a Pimms tonight! Cheers Christmas, thanks for a great idea!

Cheers, Rosie, but it would appear that Greenhill's hill is going to be somewhat soggy as he says...Andrea is bringing (the word torrential was used on the radio just now) rains for the weekend starting tonight! A whiskey and ginger perhaps for the soul?

The peer pressure around here's incredible! When the chili's done and the mail comes this fellow's taking his walkie down to the Empire.
