  1. @Soaring Hawk yes my boy has just about got over the trauma and almost (except being a constant shadow) back to normal and indeed, just love being bounced on and woken up at about half 11 NYE! 

    Weather here yesterday was awful, a fine misty drizzle most of the day, only interrupted by a heavier drizzle now and then, with no breeze to move it along.

    This morning we have light fog/mist without drizzle and feeling quite mild, might see some sunshine today if the wind blows the cloud away, thats if we get any wind to do that.

    Same here yesterday BB.  With my poor dog already in a state of extreme anxiety after Thursday and Friday's local fireworks I was horrified yesterday to see the  ASBO neighbour had built a 10 foot high bonfire (mostly green, newly cut hedge cuttings, presumably to create a pall of smoke visible from the International Space Station and impress their inebriated friends) and the huge amount of explosives he'd got lined up; enough to start a small country war!  Actually it would probably have cost them less to start a war.   No advance warning.  Despite them knowing everyone in our little cluster of houses has dogs, and in full knowledge that our dog is so terrified of the loud explosions and incoming missiles they particularly enjoy that he needed emergency vet treatment last year after he went went into shock, when they kicked off with enormous bomb blasts (we hadn't even known they were having fireworks). 

    Total disregard for the poor horses (literally) on the other side of our gardens as well.   With bouts of light rain and wind gusts in the high 20's and low 30'sc, I was hoping he'd decide it might be a tad risky and postpone the effing event.  Not a bit of it.   We put the poor dog in the car, fled the area and sought asylum at a family house over 20 miles away.   Have today collected a carrier bag full of sharp plastic and unburnt explosives and what looks like unspent shotgun pellets from the back lawn and front garden today.  Apparently one of the horses got injured from bolting in panic and other neighbours have said it was horrendous, last nearly 45 minutes and sounding like a war zone.  

    Today's weather sunny, reaching 12c at 12.11.  Feeling chilly in the west north westerly, gusting around 20mph.  Pressure currently 1020.5 steady.  No rain has fallen since midnight. 

     

     

    Sorry you have such horrific (and the swear filter wouldnt allow what I would actually like to call them), neighbours, hope doggie is ok today. Mine was already stressed from the previous night and in fact we didnt really have that many, but it only takes one to set him off, so was in a state before the local display started (which is maybe 5-6 miles away but he can still hear them), and today has his usual stress stomach runs. Hopefully tonight will be quieter for us all .

    Been a largely sunny day here, 12c reached again, but with the nagging cold wind, washing been on the line all day but still not quite dry. 

  3. Had almost constant rain here this morning from 6-30 onwards, got absolutely soaked walking the dogs at that time and its been ranging for light to torrential ever since, at one point thought the garden was going to be completely flooded, its dropped off a bit now, so the rain has had time to drain a bit. Looks like another hour or so before it clears through completely. Temp currently 13c and Ive put the heating on, which is a nightmare due to the gas prices, paying over 50% more this winter for heating, so hoping we get a very mild few months ahead.
