Same here Michael, at least we shouldn't have any hose pipe bans come 'summer' :smiley:

I wouldn't bet on that. It's fine here right now and I think the forecast said it was going to be most places. Well not Scotland or Wales obviously  :rolleyes:

Dry here, hooray! But not so sunny as it was earlier.

Dry here too, at the moment.
Unfortunately, since the tornados ripped apart the cover of our swing seat outside, the seat has become completely waterlogged.
I received a new cover yesterday, which is strong and waterproof, but unfortunately I can't put it on until the seat is dry.  I can't dry it indoors as it is too big, and I can't think of any other way to do it.
I'm looking forward to a dry, very hot January.

I would cover the swing seat.. Leaving it open to the elements (Rain) will just add yet more water..  I  would take it off on a dry day then put it back on.. and so on..
That sounds like a drag... But what do I know.. !!

I'm of a similar opinion, but Marge disagrees and says that we must wait for warm, sunny weather. 
And, as I'm sure you know, women rule the roost in the home!
I obey... for a quiet life.

Cold and raining here in Southern Germany today - snow is forecast lots of it, so let's wait and see.
