There is a heatwave arriving in the next few days................ ...

There's no pesky heatwave here!

Sunny and warm here in Christchurch, Dorset. In fact, when I was toenail cutting in an airless, triple-glazed sun room a couple of hours ago, I was praying for the next ice age.

No heatwave here either its cloudy and rather chilly, no sign of long sunny periods we were promised by Carol Kirkwood on Breakfast this morning... what a disappointment.

jellybeanjean, I wish you hadn't mentioned toe nails! We really do need a finger down the throat emoticon!

tanith the latest pronouncement by the Met Office is that they need an even better and more expensive computer to be able to predict more accurately.

If Carol had phoned me this morning I could have told her how cloudy and cold it was here - just where she was showing lovely warm

The sooner the better. It was really warm this morning but by tea time I was freezing. I broke my wool jumper out from the summer vacuum bag and put it on.

lovely and warm here in dorset today although it's clouded over a bit tonight. the weather's good up until friday but then the weekend is going to be horrendous as is next week.
could do with some sunshine however - i've still got things to do in the garden which were delayed by the rain during the summer.

Been lovely in Berks today. Central heating not on, wrong, only the bathroom radiator so we have nice warm towels
