Unbelieveably dark day here. It's hard to tell if it's still dawn or
dusk has come early. The drizzle isn't helping the dreary outlook either. It's just relentless here. Surely there must be some sun this week? Dave, S.Essex |

Surely there must be some sun this week? I now what you mean! Unbelievable how dire the last two months have been, after such an historic December. Really hoping for some Spring like weather next month, with some welcome sunshine to make up the last two dire efforts!! Last bit of sun here was on the 14th, can't see a fat lot next week but at least it will be a lot warmer! Graham |

Surely there must be some sun this week? Dave, S.Essex Your easterlies are my southwesterlies and vice versa according to reports on here it seems ! ;-) So probably better for you this week, but hopefully not too bad here as the pressure is fairly high. Cloudy (mostly) but not dull today - indeed it seemed to get light very early, though the mornings are drawing out fast now. Indeed, by the end of this week we're already into "pointless" (pre-7am) morning daylight - maybe the clocks should go forward on the first, not the last, Sunday in March... Still a very cloudy couple of months overall here though. Nick |

Not pointless if you are an extreme morning person like me. I'm usually awake by 5am and in June I can be up and bouncing off the walls at 4am or even earlier! I love the quiet of early summer mornings. Several hours of daylight yet there's noboby around to enjoy it. I guess if there was it wouldn't be quiet ![]() Watch the sunrise on June 21st? Been there, done that.... Cancel BST is what I say, I don't go to bed all that early, say 10pm, I don't seem to need much sleeep but in June it's still pretty light at that time. -- Col Bolton, Lancashire 160m asl |

I'm a lover of the early morning daylight as well. I'm usually up and about by 6 a.m. or earlier. It's the best time of day as far as I am concerned. -- Norman Lynagh Tideswell, Derbyshire 303m a.s.l. |

Everywhere is sopping wet, even vertical surfaces. It is not unusual and you have to get used to it up here, at any time of year! Will (Haytor, Devon, 1017 feet asl) -- |

Will (Haytor, Devon, 1017 feet asl) ------------------ Yes but it suits. Towns not so nice in that! And Col - 10pm not early? I haven't been to bed as early as that since I was a child or ill or drunk! I tend to go to bed late these days, at about 1.00 a.m, which is also quiet,with few distractions. Although up at about 8-8.30am (Except early golf day Wed) I do whole heartedly agree with you and wish I did get up at dawn in the summer and get out in the country early. In fact once we do (if?) get some decent weather down here I will make that a late New Year's resolution, I think. Dave |

Mrs.C not so keen to be separated from children, grandchildren and perhaps I am too old to uproot.I have always wanted to live just inland from somewhere like Sidmouth, more mellow but within reach of the wilder places.

Going to bed at 1am, I can't imagine staying up until such an ungodly hour! Well actually I *can* because I have tried to modify my sleep patterns to make them more conventional. I've forced myself to stay up till one in the morning but still ended up waking at 5am. But I don't get enough sleep that way and I end up feeling horribly tired the entire dnext ay. At the end of the day (or night) I have to listen to what my body is saying as to when I should be asleep. I can't fight it and ultimately I have to accept that I need go to bed early and get up early. -- Col Bolton, Lancashire 160m asl |
