      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.

          Ooops! Sent reply as msg. Dunno what’ll happen. Nevertheless it is bright, sunny and glorious here too. Bit chilly but who cares when it is this good?

            Brilliant day here. Bit cloudy to start. The cleared and quite sunny. Breeze a bit cool but warm enough to cut lawn which had dried out nicely. Proper Spring feeling. Keep it up please, weather Gods.

              Weather Gods seem to be meeting my requests. Bright, relatively clear and not that cold. Beeb forecast says it’ll maybe rain a bit later. Oh well. Have to make a sacrifice to those Gods – d’reckon Boris on a bonfire would work

                  Spring is sprung,
                  The grass is riz
                  I wonder where the boidies is
                  The little boids is on the wing
                  (Naa, dat’s obsoid;
                  Da little wings is on the boids)

                  Positively bucolic outside this morning: Starlings building a nest under the roof tiles, blackbirds building a nest in the ivy, squirrel porking out on Sunflower hearts on the bird table . . .

                    Very good and love the “New York” accent ?

                    Gray start to the day. Don’t know what the forecast is, so wait and see. Might be a surprise.

                      Brilliant. What a fun and cheering way to start the day! Here, too, the weather Gods are being most kind. Bird activity same too – little buggers are very busy. House sparrows building in one hedge; wood pigeon trying to persuade mate to go back to nest in stupidly vulnerable tree; robin and wren had to move to different hedge to get away from sparrows. Latter are so noisy, argumentative and do not care how close to people they get. They’ll tweet away at great volume (discussing which twig to use on this bit of nest) while sat just a few feet away.

                        I can’t take credit for ‘Spring is Sprung’ – it’s as old as the Ark!  Author unknown.

                        I was quite surprised to learn how versatile Starlings are vocally: they’re the same family of bird as the Mynah bird (Sturnidae – derived from sturnus, the Latin name for ‘starling’) and mimic the song of other birds, as well as the sound of car alarms, barking dogs, etc.  This morning the male was doing a very passable ‘blackbird’ in the cherry tree.

                        However, I don’t think he’s read the manual regarding nest construction – he keeps trying to use bamboo leaves . . .

                              Pretty nice here. Sunny, clear and would be warm if not for breeze. Forecasting 14C. Doesn’t feel like it nor is it anywhere near the 19/20C give for London. Still, the clocks have changed and it is so much lighter in the evenings. I LOVE BST!

                                Pretty much the same here too Tharg. The wind makes it feel a little cooler than predicted temps, but it is lovely all the same. As you say the lighter evenings are great.

                                  Same again here. Bright, clear sunny AND warmer. Forecast is for 18-19C. Lighter wind too. Happy bunnies here! Did our lawn yesterday. May be forced to do our neighbour’s one this p.m.

                                      Mike you are obsessed with the weather ladies!

                                      Weather is super nice today up North. Kids out on the green playing in the warm sunshine. It’s school holidays here.

                                          Nice to have the windows open the last couple of days.  Cooler and a bit breezy today, though brightening up a bit after an overcast start.

                                            Definitely cooler here in beautiful Worcestershire but another dry day has allowed me to walk a few steps around the garden. Every step is a bonus after I was confined to my bedroom a few months ago lol.

                                              Same here, sort of. Surprised. Said to be much cooler. Which it ain’t. Yet. Wanted to clean/polish my Sahara dust coloured Mini back to BRG  but it is too sunny and warm. Ho hum…

                                                Still bright and sunny, once the morning cloud clears. Getting steadily colder though. From the 19C-ish earlier in week we are down to about 13-14C and headed for 9C or less tomorrow.

                                                      Yeah, Mitch. Perfect Springlike day yesterday. This morning, however, is downright Arctic. Nothing as nasty as snow but VERY cold. Oh, why didn’t we move to Espana when we could!
