    :pray: praying for rain here, but none in sight. On water pretty severe restrictions here in queensland, but I see west australia is getting more than their fair share of wet stuff 😥

    Getting to about 20 deg c during the day here, which is a bit colder than we are used to in these parts, but pretty pleasant to work in.

    Hope you guys have a good long weekend.

    Well – summer sure seems to be over with here in US Carrie.

    It’s freezing out here (compared to the heat we’ve been having) I’m sitting outside having my morning coffee and smoke with a friggin sweater on already 🙁
    Seems the whole summer escaped me somehow.

    Pi*&ing down in Cumbria, winds blowing all the campers away (I live on a camp site, in a house I must add)

    Just had some come into the B&B as they were too cold and wet to spend another night out.

    Well, we’ve had a great weekend here in the East Midlands. Sun every day with good temperatures. Glancing out of the window it looks like today is shaping up to be more of the same

    The sun shines on the righteous. 😀

    🙁 🙁 🙁 Wind….. rain……cooler temperatures…….. can always rely on good old scottish weather 🙁 🙁 🙁

    I think we may have seen the last of summer!

    I hope it stays warm in France a lot longer Debbie, I’m heading there in October to visit my friends for a week!

    Nik – I think we must point out that you said ‘warm here tonight’…. we are talking relative terms here…… I know what you mean but southerners would need their thermals! Helluva clammy!

    Well the frosts seem to have finished here.
    We’ve had a few nice mellow spring days.
    Roll on the 45 degree summer.

    No such luck Debbie – It’s Lower Normandy. I did tour the South a good few years ago, it was FAB and the weather was great!
