Weather

High winds forecasted for an hour around 8 tonight,so wrapped up the windbreak, dark grey skies looking out over the moors .
Time for a scone I think.
Have a nice night.

Hope the hols are going well everyone.
Sunshine and showers the order of the day down here, off to Falmouth now for decorating supplies and whilst there may just be forced to get the essential cup of Costa coffee!
Have a good day all

Thanks GH  All going well although we head home tomorrow. Had a walk in the dry yesterday before the heavens opened and it rained for a couple of hours. Just made it back to the van from another walk through the woods this morning before a heavy shower. Forecast is for more of the same today so we won't be venturing very far. Can't believe how prevalent Goldfinches have become, lost count of how many we've seen. Today's tally included (apart from the usual suspects) a roe deer, Siskins, Blackcaps and a Thrush having a bath in a puddle.

Cold night ,down to 4, toasting warm inside the van Truma unit working well. ( fingers crossed).
Beautiful sunrise this ,morning,very wet wet underfoot.
Hail shower at 4 p.m. Clouds clearing out to sea.

Dry start to the day with some sunny breaks but rain is on the way for the far SW later so we will cop it. Time to get the van out first though for a quick run to the beach, coffee and straight home again before it rains. Better weather on the way hopefully later this week.
Safe journeys to those away!
GH

Really heavy grey clouds covering the moors, brief heavy showers , warmer than yesterday.
Only managing short walks out. Hopefully catch up when we return home.
Have a nice day.

Getting panicky, batteries are getting flat and still no sun

Askit.....Tony.... been away for a couple of days so not sure where your "awayday" has been.    Just back from a trip down Dumfries and Galloway..... left on Friday and did two nights at Craigie Gardens in Ayr.   * Inappropriate Word * weather on the way down but fine after that.   Walked into Ayr and also the River Trail .   On to New England Bay and did the Mull of Galloway lighthouse ... wonderful scenery with all these rolling fields and colourful cattle.   Big areas of cloud and dumps of rain on the way home, but came up the Clyde Coast the whole way and scenery wonderful.    Nice to get behind the wheel again.

Bob, I was just along the road from your house

We were at Bair Drummond for a long weekend to see how things were in the van (and our legs ) after the winter, not too far but far enough to feel like you are away. On Friday we just had some smirry rain, Saturday was really warm and there was enough dry weather on Sunday and Monday to get some walking in. There were a couple of heavy downpours but we were lucky enough to be in the van when they happened. Home now but still showers

Very low cloud and rain all night here at Olivers Mount Scarborough, not been out yet but the ground is not looking good

Much better morning, a bit of rain overnight but dry enough to get on and forecast is improving picture all week. Managed to get out in the van yesterday which was great but had a job to park in Falmouth. Back to working outside now though, must get as much done this week as possible after losing so much of May for the weather.

Another wet night at Whitby, dreich low cloud morning, had a couple of rolls and square sausage and decided to return to Bridington 
Tags glad to be back home, running nuts in the back garden.
Have a nice day.

I must have been living in a parallel universe, square sausage, had to google that one! Glad you are back home safe and sound Boaby.

Turned out a really good day down here and is now a lovely clear blue sky evening, should be good for lots of stars tonight but forecast says chance of frost!! We are in a bit of a frost pocket where we live so hope not the plants will not be happy!

Nice and tasty square sausage Hog, an alternative to links. Even better with a clappy doo.
Still overcast with heavy skies,abit milder,good walk out with Tag away from the off lead dogs
Have a nice BHW.

Broken cloud with the odd ray of sunshine ,has been dry through the night let’s hope it gets better, taxi to the seafront day

Dull damp start after overnight rain, no shopping for me today as I've got to be somewhere else. Result

Another vote for the square sausage, on a roll with a fried tottie scone please

A nice bright but chilly start today. I was awake early even though our resident blackbird was missing this morning so I got up and sat with muttly with the dinning room door open until breakfast time. 
Hopefully it will stay dry this afternoon so I can walk into town rather than taking the car. I have an eye test booked. I can’t remember how long I have had my latest glasses and the lenses are scratched. The optician across the road closed last year 
Another local business fallen during the pandemic not to come back sadly.

Really sunny morning and warm clouding over now though chance of rain later. Best get on with the painting

Roasting hot this afternoon,nipped out to Fraisthorpe beach, nice to sit out in the warm sun, especially after Whitby.
Boaby

Its been good down here too for a change, managed to get loads done so now to enjoy a bath and perhaps a glass of Thatchers cider.

Might try to find a square egg or an oblong tomato to go with it, couldn't resist sorry,,,,, square sausage whatever next!

Resisting any puns, beautiful sunrise,some cloud on the horizon,otherwise a nice start to the day, lots of Blackies,Marvis, T its finches out gathering insects and worms.
I watched the supervet with Noel and his wee Bt, last night, went to bed wrecked.
Great walk out with Tag,have a nice day.
Boaby

Looks set to be another warm one today at Scarborough, clear blue skies with just a few wispy white clouds no breeze at all, enjoy you day people out there

I had many happy years as a child on holiday in Bridlington. We stayed on the caravan park (renting) in Sewerby. This was when the snicket down to the cliffs was kept tidy and not overgrown, you could walk into Sewerby Hall for free around the back, and the harbour was old school, undeveloped and with an old man who rowed you across to the south pier. 

Happy days. And always sunny!

It was lovely and warm here yesterday, I had an appointment on the other side of town and it was odd to see folk wandering about in summer clothes Back to normal today with showers forecast for later but at least it's mild and the picture is an improving one

Boaby, we watched that too and I was wondering how you would be feeling about it. GH, square sausage is not a new phenomenon. Not sure of the origin but it's been about since well before I was born. It's a topic on almost every expat "Scottish" forum around the world with people sharing sources and recipes. A friend used to run a Scottish shop in Canada and it was one of his best sellers
