it was lovely in Pembrokeshire yesterday and we spent all afternoon on the beach.

This morning it is wet and blowing a gale.

We get spoilt with the weather in the South East I think.

yes I had the heating on in the van Friday evening and got very wet walking the dog. But Saturday was a lovely warm and sunny day - I was staying down at Hurley Riverside park and visited Hurley village fete - A traditional fete with beer tent and hog roast. Then today was another wash out!!

On the Isle of Wight , friday first day of real rain for what seems months my grass is almost brown (now a wet colour ) today bright sunshine.
:smiley: Flipping typical :smiley: First real rain we have on the island for ages and we were at the VDub festival :frowny: We decided to leave early when it started chucking it down again this morning, as after Friday's downpour the camping fields were getting quite chewed up and the exit was very sticky. A baptism of fire for me as I was driving and had to get off the field and out through a gateway without slipping and sliding. I did it! and we aren't getting a divorce ::bigsmile:

If it makes you feel better its cloudy at the moment here on the Ile De Re so may have to leave going to the beach till around midday :cool:
But on a brighter note it sounds as if my runner beans etc... are getting a good watering back home in Swansea (y)

Was there late june ,,,scorching every day. BUSBY.

Back from a very wet Wellend Steam fair weekend. Friday was torrential rain all day and night. Saturday was ok we were able to wear shorts and tshirts also managed to sit through a very disappointing show from the Bay City Rollers :( The firework dispaly was fantastic so made up for it. Then Sunday morning the heavens opened again 8.00am on the dot as weatherman had predicted :( so we gave up and came home :(

Aye, I've just put the fire on too. Unheard of in July. I live in a valley and have been 'blessed' with north west winds for what seems like months. I'm sitting here in a woolley jumper and socks holding the dog and cat close for extra warmth.

Just two warm sunny days without rain would do for me. I'm not greedy. Just two days and I will say we've had a summer.

Grrr.
