Is this summer or just a taster.

We are now on day 3 of dry, warm, sunny weather - known to most as summer.


It has been a long time in starting this year with each passing month breaking rainfall records, the usual comment about the rain being 'good for the gardens' has long since stopped being heard as gardens can't absorb anymore rain. 


This weekend saw a shift in the weather system overhead and suddenly our grey stormy skies were replaced with this.




How long this will last is uncertain, we don't know yet whether summer has finally arrived or if this is just the climate giving us a little sample, soon to be taken away.


So for now, the evenings are filled with the sound of lawns being cut and children out playing and the smell of BBQ's being lit.


Enjoy!

Enjoy it!

I'm enjoying our extremely dry, hot summer. We need rain terribly, but I don't want to complain too much because before you know it, winter will be upon us!
