We had it last night. Then today's didn't happen when it was originally forecast to. It's making up for it now with biblical rain!

WreckTangled · 27/05/2018 20:50

We haven't had any rain or thunder Confused it's currently still 22 degrees

We had the thunderstorm in the middle of the North Sea 🌊🤢 - not really seasick but it was a bit hairy. Home tomorrow Sad I highly recommend Norway especially Geiranger and Flam. Absolutely beautiful although my photo of the snow and the waterfall on my trip to a Flam looks a little anatomical

It's hot here Wreck and thunder's forecast (again). 😭

WreckTangled · 28/05/2018 09:41

I'm not that far from London anyway. Met office is saying dry until 7pm so should be ok! We're easy though so not too worried about the weather.

BiddyPop · 28/05/2018 10:43

Morning all, just grabbed coffee on my way back to the office as I couldn’t get it on the way in this morning- I had a 9am meeting with almost 20 legal people from the USA eeekk! Far too early, especially when the choice was sorting out the row about DDs hair (and unknotting the tangles after a weekend on the water! Grr!) or having breakfast....breakfast lost out.

Glorious sunshine here, it was quite dull yesterday and forecast is to cool down by next weekend (our bank holiday). Enjoy your BH today!

What was the deleted message?!?!

On the way home now. Kids are sound asleep, thank god!

TheWoollybacksWife · 28/05/2018 14:19

It was a spamtastic post from a very kind spammer gentleman explaining how we could earn squillions of pounds just by clicking on his spammy blog/website.

NoWordForFluffy · 28/05/2018 15:02

Morning! Back to work today. Feeling very unrefreshed, ha ha! At least it's only a 3 day week, and I've only one 5.30 finish which is today.

It's absolutely scorching round our way. We definitely have some of the best of the weather. Our veg has gone mad in the 3 days we were away and everything is fruiting nicely, or getting loads of flower buds on, so looking promising. The strawberry patch is awash with little green strawberries, though our first big one went AWOL while we were away. 😢

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 29/05/2018 08:36

Morning! DS2's on WiFi, I'm in bed drinking coffee. ☕

WreckTangled · 29/05/2018 08:40

Its raining here today. No plans though, just housework and chilling after yesterday!

Mrsmadevans · 29/05/2018 08:47

Morning all Smile
We are off for a walk and then to parents to clean etc etc. Dsis is doing Weds and Thurs so will have a little break then. I don't mind looking after them at all, just that it is very stressful.
Weather is rubbish , wet and grey out , glad you only have to do 3 days this week Fluffy.Your garden sounds brilliant!!!
