I'm trying to piece together in my mind other bad summers. I had a

have pinned it down to 1975, the year before the stunning summer of '76.
However most of what I read seems to be saying that 1975 was a dry warm
summer. Looking at the archive charts though things didn't look too
clever around the 6th -22nd July. Has anyone got daily rainfall stats
for Padstow district around then? I seemed to recollect it rained every
day. Graham?

Sorry Dave, I was in London that year - in my just post student era. I've got rainfall data for Camborne, but only back as far as 1981.
