Weather

We've certainly had some wet weather this last month or so - rain rain rain.


I fear for our crop of potatoes down at the allotment which are now covered by several inches of water.


As far as I am concerned this wet weather is not a new phenomenon - most school holidays as a young child seemed to be like this.


Nothing new in this world.

Postcard ..

A blast from the past.

A favourite photo ..

Pisa Italy

Not a pretty scene but this is one of my favourite photos - it captures the essence of Italy.

Another view of the BBC complex down in Salford in the old docks.

Summer

Well here we are July 1st and the height of the English summer .


Today we will have a maximum temperature of 58F but it will feel like 55F. How lucky we are ....


Forecast for the week heavy rain , light rain and more heavy rain.


Yes how lucky we are.
