Yep, same here - and we had no electricity this morning, couldn't get out in the garden and it was dark in the house. Couldn't even do any baking, or housework because the hoover wouldn't run without electric.

Really grotty day.

Please send some rain our way, very dry.

Though usual for the time of year.

Your lucky Dave,

Yesterday was the first dry day we've had for weeks.

Everything here looks so wonderfully green and fresh. Normally by now things have started looking a bit sad and dry, and the grass would be turning yellow. We haven't had such a wet start to the summer in the 5 years we've lived in Brittany. But the garden is flourishing and it shows that we don't water enough when it's dry.
It's been grey here all day, Wilbro but dry at least.

Wet, misty & cold here. I am fed up with it. Longing for a bit of heat.

Same here. I want to do some spray painting outside and its just too cold and/or wet to risk it.
On my headstone it will say: Please switch off mobile phones. I'm trying to get some sleep.
