Just got back from Stockholm in the middle of the night - I see the sun has arrived

[mcelliott]

Glorious day in the Island today - crystal blue skies and no wind, topped off with a stunning sunset. (top pic not mine)

It's officially summer - winter tyres came off today. Still some snow around from the big piles of it in winter, but the roads are warm enough any new snow won't settle properly, Still some skiing possibilities though!

I've just been out and the public parts of Box Hill are like a walrus mating ground. There are going to be some very pink people in the office tomorrow!

Hi neighbour!

Skimmington Castle was glorious this afternoon!

Some idiot at Clumber Park, decided that the hedge bottom, was the best place for his used disposable BBQ.

Have just ordered a new BBQ. I can only apologise if Summer now ends...

It was the same on Studland beach, and I managed to burn the tops of my feet.

sounds nice, one day i intend to visit brighton in the day and not go straight to the concorde.

[Glade]

Did some boozing by the canal in Leeds...

[Puggit]

Much hotter tomorrow in the SE, and then it all breaks down.
Good chance of thunder throughout the week

[dmitsi]

It can rain all week if it likes just as long as it's clear again for bank holiday, planning a big bbq on Sunday so fingers crossed.

It's well worth it. On a sunny weekend it's mayhem but once you've worked through the crowds and found a nice spot on the beach or outside a pub you can relax and take in the atmosphere. I live up the top of Brighton with a garden that gets sun all day so I can enjoy it in peace but you can't quite beat the craziness on the beach with the music and people watching/perving all day.

At the moment it's looking mild with a good chance of rain. Not awful, not like this weekend...
