No rain on the cards down here.. The dry sunny weather certainly drains my energy..

I just checked my weather station record for when there was any substantial rain here. I think there must be a dead spider blocking the gauge because it is shownd even less that I thought it would. I'll get it down and check it over.

They didn't mention rain this morning though,  so maybe its changed,  dunno.

Me too, permanently knackered.
And there's  more to come next week I believe, it's  seeped into my bones and my brain !

Same here Ruthio.   And Yes,  its supposed to be heating up again  from next Tuesday on.   :sad:

So many bad wild fires in several countries on the news tonight.
I would put a bet on we'll get more now the school's have broken up for summer too!

Everywhere around here is totally parched. Nobody will be able to get away with a sprinkler. It will take more than just a few showers to sort this. We wont be seeing lush grass til next year.

North west is forecast to have rain tomorrow, I hope it moves over Yorkshire for a while!

No rain... Temps climbing again midweek... I bloody hate it..
I love summer .. when we can open our windows and doors.. Do all the odd-jobs outside..
But this is something else.. I don't feel like working inside... let alone outside..
Don't ask me.. I know nuffink..

Yes I agree.     Only slightly good thing is we don't have to mow the lawn every weekend.  

I read that the UK is building 9 more reservoirs spread across the country,  only thing is -  there is no water to fill them with!  :rolleyes:

Its a bit grey and breezy, there's a huge music festival in our local park, it'll be sod's law for them if we get a downpour.  My plants would be happy though.
