The Great British Weather

From tomorrow will be be summer

Pissing it down. But next weekend looks warm. Let's see if it lasts though.

It's difficult to be optimistic about the great British weather.

We have lightning in Putney! And just had some biblical rain.

been dry and warm in god’s own country for past ~6 weeks lads*

*this is a freakish aberration - never known for it to stay so dry for so long

at the lido waiting for ‘30 minutes until the last lightning flash’ to pass. Health and Safety gone mad/plenty of time for my dripping wet clothing to wick a bit.

god’s own country

Any chance of a clue?

Usually people from Lancashire or Yorkshire who say that. Both are wrong ofc.

those are in england how dare you

(scotland, west coast to be precise)

I was hoping to find a place where to retire.

it normally pees down with rain year round here so might not be the best retirement place if the weather an issue

That's why I said I was hoping. :]

This is the summer and shitball result you get for voting Brexit..

Right, another punishment.

Drive safe folks. We were nearly in a major accident just now when the car in front of us suddenly went from 70 to a full stop in the middle lane of an A road. The reason: some ….. cunt decided to cross a fucking A road on foot, wearing dark clothes, after 8pm, during an absolute downpour.

*We weren’t doing 70, still nearly caused a pile-up.

Very flooded on the South side of Kew Bridge earlier, A3 flooded across near New Malden, lots of random lakes across the road once past the M25 heading into Hertfordshire. Wetest (motorcycle) ride home eva!

Thats uk time

S'warm...

Never trust the temperature a petrol station/pharmacy/other retail establishment sign displays.

Its the factory shell plant and never do . Unless its minus 5 which that one has been.

Setting up my home workspace in a south-facing bedroom was a bad choice

On the plus side the hum of the 18 inch circulator fan pointing at my balls doesn't come through on Teams call

They also say that in Aberdeenshire which is really funny, because that is one God forsaken shit hole

Current office is East facing, but under a flat roof in the loft. Hotter than your balls. Ironically, still in this office as the radiator in my actual office is being replaced, for a hotter radiator.

first ever amber heat warning ( i think i read ) for the sw over the next few days ? even though the temp isn't above 27c ?
are they pushing the global warming to the front and centre of everyones minds ? or is this some kind of superheated 27c with sharks in ?
