I really want someone to tell me they've seen a 100% guaranteed long range weather forecast, and its gonna be a lovely long beautiful Summer!

Ok so i know its not a question but i've gone and typed it now and really can't be bothered to move it

Yeah it is Trust me.

excellent news Wards, knew I could reply on you

My having had a few had no hinfluence on that answer whassssover
Tomorrow will be balmy and almost tropical in fact. I have dug out me sun hat and me best lotty shorts

There is a very strong correllation between dry Aprils and wet summers (last year anyone?) and a strong (but not so very) correllation between wettish (normal) Aprils and good summers. So far Spring has been wet so bodes well.

speaking as someone who for the first time ever doesn't have to drive anywhere to water her veg,
who can pop out the back door and water 10 times a day if she likes,
I am really hoping for a long hot summer

What are you lot like
Of course it'll be wet and 'orrible.... We're in England.... Struuuuuuuuuuth

Well it was lovely here today and is sposed to be bright and warmer (with a few isolated showers) til Wednesday. So it's looking as if the weather at Del Mansions will be a wee bit more springlike than of late... for 3 days anyway

my sunburnt forehead is a barometer Gonna be hot, hot, hot

Now what was it about 'Ne're cast a clout 'till May be out' - (meaning you shouldn't shed your winter clothing till June!!!)

And you're soooooo off my christmas card list Mr Imp so ...ner

See, I was right and today was right sunny, well oop t'north any road up Got me conked burnt wosser

flipping rained all night here still raining as now

its not rain..........................its extra special stardust

this stardust feels curiously damp I am collecting it as it's good for plants apparently

oh its magical, wonderful stuff for plants, theres nothing better than a sprinkling of stardust

There can be too much stardust - last summer for instance. I bit of sundust does not go amiss occasionally.

if its stardust i wish the flipping stars would stop it or at least do it when im not outside

Lily thats slightly worrying lololol

I just like anything that twinkles and shines, don't be such a misery Mr Grom and as for you Mr Imp I'm wishing for lots of sundust too

Arggggghhhhhh forcast says heavy snow showers for weekend and I am sleeping on the boat

would it not be better to sleep in the boat

elementary my dear Gromster. Why dint he think o that! Chortle

Oh dear G2, never mind, dont't think it is forecast to drop that much below zero, the wind chill might make it feel much colder though. Mind you, salty old sea dog like you won't even notice it. Well cept if your hands freeze to the mast

I think I'd stay below with a bottle of sommat warming and me hottie
