SPRING 2012

[PanBiker]

Glad the weather is OK for you Sue, the rest and recreation of your own choice is probably just what you need. You have not had the best of times over the last couple of months so it can only be doing you good, enjoy.

[Sunray10]

Cloudy all day over here in Nelson. Sue you have been very lucky to have nice warm sunshine. Very nice over in Rochdale when the sun's shining. I was over there last Wednesday at Touchstones museum.

[Stanley]

Sue, you deserve the good weather and the rest....
Overcast here most of the day yesterday but still a good day. Glass is solid at 30.5" and the expectation is that the cloud will break up today. One thing is certain, things could be a lot worse!

[Moh]

A very still cloudy day, not over warm either.

[Stanley]

Same here Moh and today looks like a rerun. Glass fallen a tad to 30.4" but basically no change. Best hope is that we get a bot of sun later. I don't thing temperature got higher than 10C but no wind so quite pleasant for walking. At last my knee has started to improve so that's a blessing and I can start to raise my mileage again!

[Moh]

As you say Stanley - another re-run today. I think the glass is stuck!!

[Bradders Bluesinger]

It's "quite nice" here......The fog's much brighter today !

[Sue]

Foggy this morning till about 11.00am. We have been to Rennes all morning and had lunch there, sat outside watching the world go by. Back at the house now and it is unbelievably hot

[EileenDavid]

Thanks for that Sue, Hope it holds only two weeks to go.

Hazy sunshrine during the afternoon here in Nelson. Very pleasant. Cloudier again this evening, however.

[Stanley]

Glass fallen back slightly to 30.1", dry and no wind. Looks like no change.

[Moh]

Dull and quite a chilly breeze. Rain forecast for weekend.

[Stanley]

It was colder here as well Moh, wind had got up and swung into the NW. Glass is falling slowly, 29.9" this morning. Looks as though you are right, a change in the weather is coming.

[Moh]

Quite a mild Spring day today with light clouds.

[Stanley]

We saw the sun yesterday for a while. This morning we have light rain, light breeze and not as cold. Glass fallen to 29.6".

[EileenDavid]

Yesterday it was dry all day managed to get my washing dry. Rained through the night but today we have blue skies and sunshine.

Finally, all the bulbs I planted are showing an attempt at flowering. Even the pansies and primulas bought as plug plants are showing willing.

It looks like I could have a very short burst of lots of colour, as they all seem to be coming at once

[Moh]

Mos t of our bulbs are out too and the forsythia is flowering. Clouded over now, it was lovely earlier.

[Stanley]

The showers ceased mid-morning and the sun came out. Dry flags this morning and the glass has risen a touch to 29.7". Ever the optimist I have some bedding in the washer!
Just noticed it is almost light enough for a walk at 05:50. Lovely!

[EileenDavid]

Don't you sleep Stanley? Eileen

[Moh]

It is a beautiful Spring day with a slight (but chilly) NE breeze.

[Sue]

Cool and damp here after a full day of rain yesterday. My seeds are loving it!

[Stanley]

Eileen, six hours good sleep a night and often two hours in the afternoon. I've been an early riser all my working life and it seems to suit me.
Moh, same here but a lot of heat in that sun! Dried bedding outside.
Glass has risen to over 30.2", dry and cold outside after a clear night and I suspect a touch of frost. Good weather! I notice that the daffodils have suffered. They sprouted early, got bitten by the bad frosts we had and are looking a bit weary. However, they have survived and some have managed to flower. I hope the bulbs feed well and get a better chance next year.

[Julie in Norfolk]

Ah, my hours have slipped (deliberately) and more normal hours are maintained in the world of Julie. Up at 06.00 is good enough for me these days. Clear sky down here now the weekend is over and done with.

[EileenDavid]

Sun is shining the birds are singing. The daffodil's are out and alls right with the world
