  1. Myself and the wife sat with blankets over our laps last night for the first time. Notice the evenings really starting to turn in now.
  2. Not too bad here today, a few spits and spots of rain earlier on, but quite nice at about 22 degrees in the sunshine. Hoping it picks up around the 4th of next month, off to Cornwall for 4 days.
  3. I find Thatchers Gold to be a good pick me up.
  4. Well this summer has been as about as much use as a plasticine pogo stick. The sooner it packs i'ts bags, and foxtrot oscar the better as far as I'm concerned. Here in the S.W it's been absoloute gash since the end of June.
  5. Shan't be sorry to see the back of this vile apology for a summer, and get into autumn, the weather will still probably be s,,te , but at least I shan't have any higher expectations.
  6. We're playing at a festival on Saturday, God, that's going to be a joy. Feel sorry for people who have arranged events etc naively expecting something approaching half decent weatherwise.
  7. Think that gets overlooked sometimes, we all have our moans about the current weather pattern,but for some, it's verging upon disasterous especially when you hope to earn your money in the summer to see you through the winter.
  8. Here's today's weather report from a rain and wind covered North Devon. "Summer my ar*e, it's f****n s**te" I just knew I should have cancelled, but no, stupid me, forever the optimist.
  9. Off to Cornwall for a week at the beginning of September. Hope to God this lousey weather has cheered up by then.
  10. I wonder if Spanish people sit down in the afternoon and watch a programme called "A Place In The Pi**ing Rain"?
  11. It's been like having all your teeth pulled without any anaesthetic.
  12. A few dry weeks around 20 degrees would do me fine. Not much to ask for even in our depressing good for f**** all climate.
  13. If this is supposed to be Summer, then they can shove it. Absolutely vile, about as much use as a chocolate fireguard.
  14. 1976, the year I left school was nice, it seemed to go on forever. Not that I got to enjoy it much as I joined the Junior Leaders Regt R. A C . the week after I left.
  15. Went to our local Garden Centre today, they are flogging sets of Garden Furniture for around 2 grand a throw. That's got to be the epitome of optimism in this crud .
  16. I can emphasise there, if I didn't work outdoors I probably wouldn't get so worked up about it. But sometimes it feels like a right kick in the b,,,, cks when, after 3 other wet, crud seasons, you get nearly a month of this dross. I don't crave heat necessarily, just dry will do.
  17. Booked to go down to Devon for a few days end of July /beginning of August. Seriously starting to think about cancelling, I don't fancy blowing the best part of £500 just to sit and look at a crapfest outside I can do that at home for nothing.
  18. This weather was grinding me down, I'm fe""in suicidal now.
  19. At least the Met didn't mention a BBQ summer this time around.
  20. Yet another days work down the pan. I need this weather like a bullet hole in the head. Here in the S W, we've had plenty these last 3 weeks. You're welcome to it.
  21. Supposed to be playing a gig outdoors tomorrow. Got a feeling it's going to be cancelled, Bass Guitar, Amp, electricity and rain, not a good combination.
