Although yesterday 2nd was a grotty day with murky conditions and at times
foggy with visibility below 200 metres, the steady rain was just perfect for
the garden, never too heavy, just steady and giving just under 6mm by
midnight. I would have like to have seen a good storm of course, but this
was far better for the garden which is now refreshed and looking simply
great. Broad beans are the best I have ever grown they are now 4 feet high
and not a blackfly in sight. Brussels again the best I have ever grown with
strong growing plants. Raspberries are still green but very plentiful and
all othetr veg. are thriving, peas, leeks, kale, runners, courgettes, french
beans, lettuce and cucumbers. Sorry for the gardening stuff but this is all
down to the favourable weather I'm sure during the Spring and last winter.

Today is fresher, broken cumulus cloud, sun coming out, F3 W-SW wind
bringing in sparkling clean Atlantic air, temp. 16.2C and DP 12.2C at 0900.
Simply perfect (for me)!

Dewpoint's still 17C here Will, in fact Penzance heliport's reporting
a dewpoint of 18C. Force 4 SW breeze taking the edge off the
humidity. Temperature currently just over 20C (11:15). Last nights
minimum thankfully lower at 15.0C. Mainly clear skies over the sea,
small/medium cumulus readily form over the land.
