Another stunning day here, picnic on the cliffs this afternoon - temp hovering around 21 degrees but with a lovely cooling breeze billowing off the near French coast.

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!

I love the Skim!

Pretty vicious storm heading towards the Dorset/Hants coast...

Looks angry!

It wasn't a good place to be in a linen suit Thankfully I was coming out of the interview rather than going in.

A pleasant weekend coming up, hitting the low 20s in the South. You'll all be able to mow the lawn and have a BBQ

Some tentative signs of more long term warm weather in June, but the Atlantic is up to its old tricks and wet periods is certainly looking the most likely outcome.

Lovely day yesterday, went out for a climb/walk/run around the local hills.

Rained all day - AGAIN

Fantastic day here (and the week so far actually). Top down to and from work, and out on the balcony enjoying a beer and the sun now. Only problem is the lack of sleep - midnight sun time and it's not so easy to shut the body down. Snow is slowly going too!

I'm in Arendal next week - I assume that's an awfully long way away from you?

Business - presenting at a conference. Got a nice 4 hour drive down from Gardermoen <sigh>

(no, I won't use Sandefjord or Kristiansand )

What ho chaps.
May started with first 3 weeks in Italy...gorgeous weather. Back to Munich this week and its lousy. Bank Hol here today and its looking brighter so I think this evening is a Biergarten job

[mondeoman]

Have the Met Office decreed that this is the "warmest year on record" yet?

We could do with some sun up here in Lancs; for the last ten days or so (since I got my new motorbike delivered, actually ) it has simply poured down with the exception of Monday. So I've managed a whopping 123 miles on a new bike. Grrr.
