I'm actually quite liking it, as long as it doesn't go on for too long. It's still short-sleeves weather, and it's good to have a few refreshing days when the heat isn't too enervating.

Wilma, are you sure we will get at least 3 months of summer???? It seems to be getting shorter and shorter each year!! Getting too much like UK in my opinion....

I can remember over the years it has often been like this in June. I remember Wendy and I were out one year delivering The Sierras and in a hurry to get back for the end of year school plays and we got hit by flash floods, hail, thunder - you name it! It was awful - but short lived!

In between you get beautiful blue skies, sunshine and crazy high temperatures. As a sun worshiper I love it - the only thing is it never loves me and I would love to have the tan that many of you end up with after a few weeks in the sun....

Another week or so then I reckon it will be sunshine through to September (give or take a few days)!

Bring it on......

Ho hum - Sorry to be a killjoy, but latest weather news (5 minutes ago) is that motorways etc. are collapsing in northern Spain because of severe flooding, same as they did here a few months ago, and the rain's on its way south . . .

Here's an animation of the rain in the south east corner of Spain (Murcia/Andalucia) for the past 2 days. It's quite relaxing to watch if you aren't caught up in it

And guess who got caught up in a thunderstorm this morning!

I set out and it was nice and sunny doing my walk around the lake in Castril and as I came up the hill the heavens opened up.....

I ended up taking cover under the tunnel with the local Policia guy (who was out for a run) for 15 minutes waiting for it to stop enough so we could get back! All these cars past and nobody stopped to offer a lift - amazing!

Just got back to the car before it came around again. Needless to say I am not leaving the house again today! The sun is MEANT to come out tomorrow!


cheers

Sorry guys, I think I was singing a little too much today!! Now the rain's so heavy we've lost our TV signal. Oh dear, does that mean I won't be able to watch the football!! We've got several episodes of "Vampire Diaries" to get through.....and a bottle of pink fizz!! Yay!! x
