Novocastrian

It is a-raining not in Normandy. A very pleasant sunny day at 25C with a light south west breeze.

The meteo says we might get a shower on Saturday.

Good luck with Arthur.

About a year from now. House in RH goes on the market in the spring.

Ah Monsieur Chateau-Nouveau, bienvenu to this side of the Atlantic. I noticed your new signature, very nice. Hopefully it's something French and not some kind of Dylan French period abomination. Surprised there's rain, beautifully sunny with a light breeze a couple hundred km to the north of you.

Why do you ask? The sig is a stanza from a Norman traditional song written in 1866.

Souvy

It's the first four lines of Ma Normandie.

It was used for many years as the unofficial anthem of Jersey (it may still be).

<You don't normally write flowery French like that, so I Googled the first line>

Indeed, but I noticed a couple of the weather sites would use yvr for the lower mainland. I have found better sites since

Yep, sometimes I feel like its weather on steroids!
BUT we need to be thankful that we are not in the UK, gotta love the DM for drama:

An amazing amount of buggage up here this summer. Not (just) mosquitoes but an enormous amount of different bugs, some of them bloody massive.
