What a joy to have the sun streaming through the windows this morning.

I have washing on the line, done a tip run, cleaned the window sills outside and identified the jobs that need doing in the garden.

My lovely husband is washing the cars and I will sit in a sheltered spot and have a cuppa outside later.

Isn’t it wonderful to see a return of the sun!

Yesterday was warmish and spring like. Today grey, dampish and no sun yet. And cooler than yesterday. North Surrey.

Ah well, it was nice while it lasted😂!

crazyH Sun 22-Feb-26 13:34:49

I should have put my sheets in the wash - well, I’ll do it now 😂

blue sky with some clouds...a bit warmer than it's been, at least the deep freeze has gone...

Gorgeous here in West Yorkshire. I’ve done 3 loads of washing, lovely seeing it blowing on the line. Had a walk into town, a bit of shopping now sat on the sofa with the sun streaming in. Long may it last 🤞

Cumbria blue sky and sun so far, just beginning to cloud over. Wish I'd washed my kitchen curtains!

It's been sunny here (N Surrey) for most of the day. Looks like rain is setting in now but it may just be getting dark.

Lovely sunny day in SW Scotland, even managed to time in the garden and a walk at the local NT gardens. It was so lovely to hear the birds singing and feel the sun for a change.

Not here in my bit of Scotland. Sunny start but windy and wet now.

But I agree the sun makes such a difference.
Last Tuesday I spent the day in Edinburgh and Leith. It was wonderful sitting drinking a latte in a café at the waterside.

Glorious here in the north too.
I unfortunately didn’t get any outside work done, due to doing errands for my mum.
Did the washing dry, still felt cold though. Not that I am complaining 😏

Witzend Sun 22-Feb-26 18:06:05

We had some, too! 😎
And I found a pair of sunglasses that had been missing for a few weeks (not that I’ve needed them) - they had slipped through a hole in my coat pocket into the lining. 🙂
Yes, it’s high time I mended that hole - I’ve known about it for at least a month…

It was lovely here I was sipping tea while digging over raised veg patch loved it!

I went to a fabulous huge market in a local medieval bastide. I bought lovely fruit and vegetables, all local produce. Then sat under the arcades in hot sunshine drinking coffee and finished my very good book. On the way there and back magnificent views of the snow covered mountains against bright blue sky. Perfect. I'm not on holiday, I live here. How good is that.

Lucky you, sounds perfect.

Lovely sunny breezy day here in NE Scotland. Washed my sheets and tidied the garden. Long may it last. After weeks of rain.

Sunny but absolutely baltic in Falkirk. Sitting with a nice cup of tea, looking at gransnet and enjoying the warmth from the wood burning stove.

SillyNanny321 Mon 23-Feb-26 15:52:22

Riverwoman Mon 23-Feb-26 17:03:33

Lovely and overcast here ... a welcome change from the heat of the last few weeks ... can actually sleep at night

JamesandJon33 Mon 23-Feb-26 17:16:51
