A belated Happy Birthday to you Mick birthdaycake.

Its beautiful in West London, I've just opened up all the windows, so nice not to have the heat on anymore.
Happy 65th for yesterday .

Lovely morning now in NE Cheshire, sook. I sat in the sun for a while yesterday and my knees turned pink. Today the amelanchier blossom is out. It's such a pretty tree which also has an abundance of berries in the autumn which the birds strip as soon as they appear.

Beautiful day here again in Hertfordshire, the sun is shining and we are off picnicking at a bird reserve, hoping to hear the elusive nightingale who has just arrived in this country. 5 singing males at the reserve so far. Fingers crossed.

We have soft and grey and an invisible far side of the loch again today, but I noticed my forget-me-nots ('field' forget-me-nots rather than the garden variety – much smaller plants and they grow in odd wee crevices rather than in flowerbeds) have begun to flower smile

PS Hope you had a nice birthday yesterday, Mick.

Mainly cloudy

janthea Fri 03-May-13 11:54:55

Blue sky in central London earlier but has clouded over slightly now.

Cloudy but warm here today, was glorious yesterday, I caught the sun after spending the day in the woods yesterday with my DGD and her class.

Happy belated birthday Michael wine

I am sitting at my desk at work bloomin' well freezing. Heater on full blast and the sky is a kind of wishy washy grey/blue. The clouds are rolling in from the East. But never mind Its Friday, yipeeeeee

Happy birthday for yesterday Mick smile

Belated happy birthday Michael - you were missed! Cloudy and breezy here in Manc. Off to the North East tomorrow to see my DS and family - looks like I'll be packing the big jumpers and heavy coat!

glassortwo Fri 03-May-13 12:46:24

vegas dont know where in the North East your coming but Newcastle is 2 top coats warmer than it was this time last week, you wont need jumpers, I have even taken my heavy coat off grin enjoy your trip.

vegasmags Fri 03-May-13 13:34:40

Thank you glass smile I am off to Chester le Street, but I find you people in the North East very hardy. My DIL went to work in deep snow and freezing temperatures dressed in a little frock and ballet flats! I might just pop one or two things in my case, just to be on the safe side.

glassortwo Fri 03-May-13 13:56:58

Not too far from me vegas we are classing these last few warm days as our summer wink

gillybob Fri 03-May-13 14:00:59

Very hardy vegas ? what the heck do you think we are up here livestock?? grin

Summer hasn't reached me here yet Glass still bloomin' freezin' on the coast. smile

vegasmags Fri 03-May-13 14:04:06

Gilly - this much I know. We will be out and about as my hosts love the outdoors and I was once on the beach in so-called summer, so cold that my fingers went white and dead. Funnily enough, I refused the offer of an ice cream ...grin

gillybob Fri 03-May-13 14:09:20

You must be soft vegasmags smile

I live almost across the road from the beach and can be found there almost every evening in the "summer" and every Sunday throughout the year. Yes its bloody freezing quite bracing but so peaceful and beautiful.

glassortwo Fri 03-May-13 14:15:37

We had summer yesterday gilly I have got sun burn on my chest. shock non of the kids had sun hats or suntan lotion on.

GillieB Fri 03-May-13 14:16:30

Another one in Northumberland and I am sitting, shivering in the house - yet it is sunny outside. I am trying not to put on the central heating, but may give in soon. DH is off on his bike with his cycling friends and I am waiting for DD to arrive (only two weeks to go on Monday, for her).

glassortwo Fri 03-May-13 14:17:04

Just realised that might look like I was topless ...no above the neckline of my T shirt wink

glassortwo Fri 03-May-13 14:18:00

Its quite warm up here on our hill GilliB smile

gillybob Fri 03-May-13 14:20:29

Come on now Glass tell the truth. Were you cavorting around in the woods with no top on? grin

I am shivering here at work too GillieB but give in the heating hours ago. The guys are in and out all the time and never seem to think to PUT THE WOOD IN THE HOLE ! Grrrrrrrrr

glassortwo Fri 03-May-13 14:27:57
