Andy Bown I have the same problem. Twice I've strimmed the grass in anticipation of mowing the lawn, for it to then rain yet again. I can't even start gardening this year until I've cut the grass. I've lived in this house for 26 years and have never experienced 8 months of continuous rain/showers and a garden underwater.

SollyOlly Agreed Solly Olly. The recent rains have been relentless, it's so much better to finally see the sun and clearer skies at long last. Even the cat was getting cabin fever earlier this week due to the rain

Today was a real let down after yesterday. It's only just stopped raining and it looks like there's more to come over the next couple of days

Neil Harris The Met Office would have got a caning if they had forecasted heavy rain instead of a foot of snow, so I suppose they can't win really. It's disappointing though for those wishing for snow.

Snowyowl9 Agreed, but there's plenty of time yet

I know, right in the middle of the day during the small amount of daylight that we have at this time of year. Typical

The rain really has felt relentless during this week so I'm not surprised by this

Very cold and frosty earlier today. I went walking this morning and even the grass puddles had frozen over, but we were rewarded with a rare blue sky

I agree, it's the absolute pits. It hasn't even got light during the day. Utterly dismal

I don't think we'll be seeing a hosepipe ban anytime soon

I agree. I absolutely detest this constant rain and dark skies. We've had so much rain and unsettled weather this year

Just constant rain here. Same again tomorrow too

It's turned back to rain here too. Oh well we did have a few flakes but not for long. The cat has gone back to bed. He's disappointed

That's so sad . One of mine departed earlier this year too

Well it can't make its mind up. Very annoying
