We are 1C here which is even cold for here this time of year while my oldest son who lives just south of the Arctic Circle has 36C today. My outdoor flower plant is currently residing in the guest room with the heat cracked on. I have to give it heat as the door has to stay closed to protect it from the cats DH collects. Did you get the rain you wanted?

After 27 Celsius yesterday (I kid you not) and weeks without so much as a drop of rain, today it is 6 Celsius and has been raining steadily since about 8:00 this morning. While I am very glad about the rain, it would have been nice NOT having to drag out my padded coat and scarf for my trip to the groceries store.

It certainly blew the cobwebs away.<br />Do you think your iris may turn out to be pink but with purple edges to the flowers?

The roads are littered with leaves and small branches that have been ripped off of trees and bushes and any flowers in the garden over a couple of feet high have been snapped over. Along the sea front, pebbles and shingle have been thrown across the promenade and people out walking are wrapped up as though it's mid-winter - a far cry from the heat and sunshine over the VE weekend.Derek Faulknerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05140363868104172311noreply@blogger.com
