Good for the melons

Folks in England can borrow some of our good weather for the moment but we will be taking it back.

Temperatures in London are set to soar to 28 º on Saturday dipping to a cool 24 º by Monday. This follows the blizzards they experienced at Easter.

Meanwhile here, we will be lucky to see temperatures reach 20º. We'll also have showers just to cool things down further.

The heavy rain we had yesterday morning was welcomed by the farmers who were desperate for some water for their crops. So when you're still able to buy melons this year, think of the bad weather we had to put up with in early May to provide them.

PS The problem with yesterdays' rain was that it came from North Africa - what we call mucky rain becuase it carries dust with it.
