Ive noticed a problem with the original thread, taking me to page 1 of the thread. Assuming its the same problem as my original Brexit thread (stolen by WMC lol) that there were too many pages, i have started another weather thread (stolen from lightbodyae55 lol).
The only person who got all his work done by Friday was Robinson Crusoe.
Anything i post over three lines long please assume it is an article lol.

@POPS would you mind putting a picture up of your Wisteria when you get 5. Would like to see them and show my wife please
I certainly will, but as the second flowering has just started I’ll wait until there is a decent display.
The first flowering of the season is the really prolific one, hundreds of flower strands covered the greenery, but as the wisteria is very well established, second blooming should be photogenic in about a week or so. The weather seems to have accelerated it as it blossomed in September last year ?
Cheers, @POPS Enjoy growing the beasts and neighbours and walkers going past often stop, admire and chat. I regard them as a sort of public entertainment, I suppose. ? ?
Must agree with kezo. Love to see a snap of your wisteria. I’ve been hooked on the stuff since going to Hever Castle which was just covered in it, a spectacular blaze of purple.
Ooops… forgot the weather: same as, again, only a couple of degrees warmer. With light breeze it’ll feel warmer than it really is. Happy bunny. Thanks again, weather gods.
Thanks @POPS
Currently sunny 17c
Currently Sunshine and 21.5 C when out in the car.

Last Car: Toyota C-HR Excel Hybrid...4 way 80kg hoistSame again. Bright, clear, hot (22C at 7am) forecast to nudge 30C later on. Pleasant breeze to keep it feeling cooler outside. It was so lovely yesterday, I actually took a walk. First time in a ages I’ve tried it. Went down to local river, the Rife, and meandered along for a quarter mile round-trip. Took geological time to do it, well, 50 mins. Also took extra Tramadol to supress pain. Bloody difficult walking on country tracks but worth it. Beautiful day, batch of egrets on river and Tiger Moths puttering along overhead. Delightful.
25.5 C already and is climbing. Too hot for me again I am sorry to say. Though it looks like it will be cooler through the night, thank goodness.

Previous car:Peugeot 308 GT Premium 1.2 Pure tech Petrol.Garden temp hit 31C at 1pm. I can cope with it, doing stuff like deadheading flowers, if I do it slowly. Madam T had a hospital appointment today. Drove her there. She decided to walk back!! That’s just over 5 miles. For a 70-something year old. Arrived not even out of breath, feeling “refreshed”. Pah!
Please congratulate Madam T for me Tharg. I’m in total awe of her! Also well done to you for your river walk earlier. It may be painful but it’s an epic result.
I’ve just spent a few minutes on the roof balcony and that drained me.?
30deg in Bournemouth . No way I’d be walking any distance in this heat. Out in the Mazda today with the hood UP!
Hi @joss,
I have advanced copd to and also sleep apnea. I was having issues with it sore throats, aerophagia and because I require quite a high pressure setting I found I had to have the head set very tight which made a real mess of my face (all day tram lines etc etc) but earlier this year I was issued with a humidifier for it (devilbiss) completely changed my life if you haven’t tried it might be worth a squint at
Existence is a state of mind, my minds a right state
Out in the Mazda today with the hood UP!
Lovely car the mx5. Unfortunately had to sell mine last year as I struggled to get in/out lol.
I had a 2006 2lt in metallic blue and spent around £3.5k puting a super charger on it taking it from 160-240bhp 🙂
Clear sky’s 28c. Sat in the house with air con on

Previous car:Peugeot 308 GT Premium 1.2 Pure tech Petrol.@POPS will pass on your congrats to Madam T. Ironically, today was a relative short walk for her. Regularly does 10 miles plus along the beach when tides permit. Indulges herself in the new sport which she has christened “Groyne yomping” – have to get over/through/under the breakwaters to stay on the waterline.
@kezo 240bhp? MX5? Lethal! I want one ?@kezo 240bhp? MX5? Lethal! I want one
160 standard 240 with supercharger fitted. Loved the car tbh.

It was like heaven 🙂
Same again. Hot, clear etc. Forecast to max at 31C which will mean 33C in the back garden. Just enough breeze to cool it a bit and, with the correct set of windows open, drive the “aircon”.
about 15c at moment very clear skies so expect it’ll get as hot as yesterday’s 28c
