Good afternoon, it's a lovely day here, blue sky and and a pleasant breeze.

Hey - I'm about 12 miles north of manchester city centre, in a former cotton town so obviously we're used to rain and damp. I'm not long back from a walk, for which I wore thermals and an arctic type water proof. I was rather warm and the rain the sky keeps threatening us with has not yet arrived. Blissful, after the very cold, wet and windy weather we've had in recent days.

Whenim is clearly in her own little weather system sandwiched between me and Vegas

whenim Its been drizzling down here in South Cheshire and now looking very black over Bills mothers.

Just down the road from you, vegas and not had a drop of rain (yet?!) Hopefully, the clouds are scooting across the sky and will leave us with a fine day smile

Morning all.

A late one from me as DGC stayed last night because DD had to get her partner to the coach at 5am as he's off to Scotland. She will join him 9th June.

It's a bright sunny day here and the wind has dropped thank heavens.

Absolutely chucking it down in Manchester, and it looks set in for the day.

Good morning everyone from a dry and sunny East Northants. The wind has dropped so it feels warmer today. I hope you all have a happy Thursday.

Blue sky this morning but not voted yet. It's still rather cold out there.

Its a lovely morning so far here in the Surrey Hills. Dropped GD off at work placement, quick sweep, hoover and grump at untidy absent teens then into the calm of the office where my desk needs a good tidy. Look through the window where the box still needs a haircut so I can see out. Later, out for coffee, pick up GD from work placement then off to vote.

Good morning everyone. It's not raining and the wind has died down a lot. Supposed to be dry today but there are some big black clouds around. Couple of roads blocked yesterday by falling trees.
Builders not here today, waiting for the windows, why can't they get on with something else then?

Good morning.

Have been to vote and the weather is much better today so maybe I will get to do some work in the garden. A few jobs to do indoors first though.

rubysong Thu 07-May-15 09:02:56

I can't give a weather report as I am still in bed. When I get up I shall go to vote and then look for my costume for the forthcoming concert. Three of us are singing a (hopefully) funny song so today we are getting together to practice. This evening there is a full rehearsal. If I have any time in between there is a mountain of ironing waiting.

A lovely morning in Colchester. Waiting for machine so I can put washing out then a walk in the sunshine.
Going to see Gary Delaney with DD1 this evening, will need a laugh after all this politics nonsense!

Good morning everyone.
It's cloudy with sunny intervals so far in south Northumberland today. I have been to vote, I stopped in on my way home from work. There had been 55 people in and they had only been open 35 minutes. I look forward to the results!

baubles Thu 07-May-15 08:18:51

Morning all, much brighter here today I'm glad to say.

Off to my drawing class & happy not to have to walk in the rain

kittylester Thu 07-May-15 08:17:26

Good morning all from the East Midlands!

We have a bright sunny day here which means I won't get as soaked going to vote as I did on the school run yesterday! My new car , approx six weeks old, appears to have its second puncture confused so that needs sorting out and a man is coming to mend the Sky box, so trying to fit in Sainsbury's and Mum too looks like a really tall order! Still I'm a woman - I'll cope ! grin

Enjoy polling day! sunshine

Good morning to everyone.
And a lovely morning it is too here in mid Essex. Hope it lasts. Delivery from Sainsburys this p.m. Unpacking mounds of groceries is not my favourite pastime but I am thankful that this facility is available now that DH and I find lugging heavy bags of shopping around difficult.

Good morning again Mick (and everyone else). Are you trying to confuse me or am I seeing double ?

PRINTMISS Thu 07-May-15 07:36:47

Good morning to you all, we have a still morning after two days of very strong winds - I was almost blown over yesterday, and I am no lightweight. Off to the skip this morning with some rubbish I have convinced the other half we no longer need. Had great fun at the opticians yesterday sorting out his specs, he is absolutely useless at agreeing to dispose of anything, but the optician finally persuaded him that he only needed two pairs and the others he was hoarding were no use to him. Enjoy your days.

The wind has died down here in the W. Country. It was so strong yesterday that it blew my sunglassess off my face, across the pavement and onto the road. A kind young woman retrieved them for me.

Good morning Mick, good morning All

It's a beautiful sun-drenched, morning here today with only a gentle breeze. A couple of thrushes are singing their little hearts out. The thrush population is growing - all those lovely little slug eaters being born!

A day to lift the spirits sunshine
