Close to a date record minimum here last night.

[Dorsetbred]

Good Morning All, a fresh, sunny start to the day, with little or no chance of rain, it must be Spring today!

The overnight low of 2.4°C at: 06:27 has crept up to 9.0°C, RH76% with a light breeze from the N, with a ew clouds at an altitude of 2,500 ft.

From Above

On Golden Sands, perfect conditions if you are crossing the channel in a small boat

 

[Rich_Clements]

Good Morning All,

A chilly 4c start to the day very little wind for a change so that was nice.

 

 

[jtay]

Cracking day, alas the cloud is on its way...

[Rich_Clements]

 jtay spoil sport  

[jtay]

 Rich_Clements Sorry. It's just such a shame it won't last.

Just popped outside to water the grass seed and it still feels pretty chilly out there. 

 

 

[Andy Bown]

There’s a distinct difference between my sun trap patio and the shadier other side of the lawn. 
 

Do you know what’s the best thing about today? Not only the clear blue sunny sky, but the complete lack of wind.

It’s like lockdown Spring 2020 for one day .

[MP-R]

It’s got a very April 2021 / 2010 feel today. Alright in the sun but the moment you’re not…

[jtay]

Perfect on the patio now.

Just been over the river to take my water sample. Met an older chap and his wife over there, who live in the next village. Don't know them.

Anyway, he asked lots of questions about what I was doing and in the end he gave me his card offered to give us £200 for more kit.

 

[*Stormforce~beka*]

 jtay Stupid pigeons ate my grass seed!!

 Andy Bown No ti's not. It's too cold

[*Stormforce~beka*]

 jtay How the rich live!!

[jtay]

 *Stormforce~beka*

His card had three addresses on it.

 *Stormforce~beka* The pack said my grass seed was bird resistant.

If you're struggling to get it to germinate, mix the seeds with some compost. Put it all in a bin bag for a few days, then spread it. The birds won't bother with it then.

[*Stormforce~beka*]

 jtay Oooh your good! Its for my chicken area so probably won't live any way!!

3 addresses sounds scammy!
