They have certainly been getting it very wrong lately.....and with all the modern technology available to them.........why???

They would say it's not their faults - it's a hit and miss enigma! There I was looking at the chart, thinking "Umm.. My butts will be all filled today. Er .. It would take 10 days of drip, drop, drip .. to fill up one!"

@Logan Have you had more rain? You lucky lady!

This is hit and miss on a big scale......satellite radars are quite accurate.....it's just they lack the ability to read them and translate the info correctly.

Yes, and year in year out, they get £1m bonus. Which nurse or teacher gets that?

And @Logan said she had heavy rain yesterday, which was not predicted. ...

Exactly!

Morning all, @alp yes I'll save you some water. i know if you score the skin on pork and leave it to marinade it should get through and as @Leeski said put it in a bag for a day in the fridge.

I always watch a lot of cookery programmes to pick up some tips, i hardly use the recipes.

Usually Jamie Oliver and Nigel Slater, never Ramsey, don't like his language.

Took some pics yesterday, some you may have seen before.

@Logan Have you had more rain? You lucky lady!

No not yet. But it's a lot fresher than it was, that's hubby's saying.
I say that it's cooler.

Ooooops! I am stilling wait for the ONE anemone bud to flower. That's the trouble of leaving them in pots and not looking after them. I used to have about 10 pots of them. Now, about 3 - all perished because of the heat.

@Logan Glorious weather, Glorious flowers and glorious photos! We are all grey, miserable here. Misery compounded by having no useful rain!

If your butts are filled - that sounds dodgy! If your water butts are filled, your plants must have had a GOOD SOAKING! Lucky, lucky you!
