suffolk lady

perhaps markyo hasn't spent much time in england lately to realise how dire the weather has been

Pleasant day here warm sunny and quite breezy. For those who want the weather to turn settled i am hazarding a bet that next monday when we are allowed to sit inside cafes pubs etc it will become so hot we will fight to find a seating spot outside

just for lassie 23 sorry its not green,

Maybe nettle beer would be more to your liking then or how about gorse flower wine or elderflower champagne even dandelion roots were used ground up to make coffee or was that chicory beetroot leaves are supposed to be good as well

Ps a lot of weeds are herbal and have healing uses.

We have loads of weeds but our window sills indoors are inundated with individual [dont laugh] smoothie glasses full of baby chilli pepper and tom plants about 50 at least, still it saves having to do the dusting

Well lassie23 and other annoyed gardeners seems most of us are having probs growing veg etc apart from weeds, spoke to young local man who has an allotment he said a lot of the growers have lost a lot of plants so its being a difficult growing year and mother nature has been having a good lie in her bed this year. Lets hope she has woken up properly at last.

What a lovely day today, it seems spring has arrived at last sunshine blue skies and a warm breeze luvly jubbly as Del boy would say

Make sure the string on you kite is strong as we are getting hefty gusts of wind here, luckily still sunny and mainly lovely blue sky

Kite flying weather here but at least we have sun and blue skies

Had some nice rumbles of thunder and a quick heavy shower earlier. How nice to have gone out for coffee earlier and warm enough to take a jacket of, luckily shower happened just as we got home about 11-15am. Sad news just found out the downed fence is our responsibility also hedgehog is now deceased probably fell foul to one of the local pesky cats got to say it why cant cats be kept in their owners property about time there was a law brought out.

ok we are now down to but temp probably only about 10degrees bit of a breeze as well but at least the sky is light grey now.

Says it all really this morning

Dry so far today sun and cloud around also a brisk breeze, sounds like we might get a day or so of better temps but rain to spoil the party. Party spoilers seem to be the airlines who are going to double and treble their fares not nice for those who are desperate or foolhardy enough to go for a holiday overseas. Lots of gorgeous places here in the uk to go and visit b**ger keeping up with the joneses

Managed to go out today after the windy days previously which made sitting out having a coffee not appealing, got to Yoxford just after 10am sat with coffee and tea cake with no sun or wind but ok. Left to go to bens market garden at knodishall while driving between there and saxmundham the sky was angry and in the distance we could see sheets of rain falling by the time we reached bens it was an absolute downpour still raining when we got home about 11-15am. At least we had our coffee sat outside while it was dry

Had nice big rumble of thunder here a little while ago, is this the warmer weather trying to move in?

Sunshine now but have had very heavy downpours earlier, during the morning we had very strong gusts of wind one brought down a fence panel in the back garden. That side of the garden is possibly our neighbours fence so maybe we might not have to get it repaired.

Quite an interesting spell of weather at least it has not been boring. Watched tiny finch cling to garden wall then make it to small shrub either foolhardy or brave against hefty wind gusts. Our garden is full of neighbours magnolia blossom petals watched other neighbour out chasing empty bulk gravel sack take off like parachute, as i said not boring weather

Been getting some very beefy gusts of wind here and rain has arrived now

Horrible morning grey and blowy, cant decide if snipper has a large tea urn or still in his man cave. My other half has managed to brew without a still so far but every so often talks of making one, moonshiners on tv sets him off. Also smoker rears its head still remember best saucepan used with tea bags and sugar as smoker, saucepan ended on scrap heap and kitchen walls needed repainting, happy days

Bit of a liquorice allsorts day here, frost to start with no wind first thing then sunny with brisk breeze had light rain shower now very cloudy, with the brisk breeze, then to cap it all joy of joys weather warning for tomorrow for strong winds!!! Hope fences and polytunnels portable greenhouses and garden trampolines get well tethered down in peoples gardens. What will happen on may 17th weather gives heatwave and all the places allowed indoor clients ie pubs cafes etc will not need them known as sds law

Had some heavy showers here and sky is black coming this way so another one on the way, really cold wind here as well not a day to be outside. Seems a typical bank holiday weather wise, reckon diy suppliers will do well personally i'm not bothered about sitting outside in pub gardens or cafes when need to be wrapped in blankets, can think of better ways to enjoy myself

Here was frosty earlier then came out sunny but now heavy cloud all around, seems may is starting of cold and going to be windy more like march. Wonder if this odd weather is a result of lockdown ie less travel by air sea water and land so less pollution,

Have just had some rain here only a light shower but more could be on the way.

Yes cold wind here as well but no rain yet but heavy cloud is piling in now. Had our little hedgehog visitor back this morning about 4am hubby saw it but i was fast asleep as any sensible person would be at that early hour
