2 weeks and the evenings start drawing in !!!



Bah humbug...

I can hear what you're saying, Keith, but you have to admit it
is a million times better than last year - and the years before
that?

It is also a million times better than we have had almost all this
year so far.

But it isn't. Not where Keith is. I don't understand why everyone in
the sunny areas have to post and tell Keith how sunny and warm it
is where they are. His point is that where he is it is bloody awful
and the forecasts were for warm and sunny weather there as well,
albeit retracting to patchy cloud after the event and now
predicting the solid cloud the day following we got that as well.
The S.E is often the hottest part of the Country with the record high
at present so with mid June temperatures largely in the 12-16C
range he is entitled to draw attention to it despite the good
weather in the West!

I suspect that the trouble is that the North Sea is much colder than it
normally is at this time of year. (Incidentally, Adam is based in
Horsham IIRC, which is not exactly the west, though I'm sure it's had
fair better weather than the Essex coast.)
