Miserable here too and no change in sight on the forecast.
I've cancelled life outside, no way am I standing at a bus stop in this weather :-|

Not a pleasant day for being outside especially waiting for a bus that may or may not turn up :-0 :-0

:-D Belle, I meant no change in sight for the weather LOL I've clarified :-D
Hard to tell with eye as the drops are making it blurry. I do get good spells though, like suddenly seeing the colour of the landing walls instead of dull cream :-D

Morning Belle :-) <3 Island :-) <3 Everyone :-) <3

It's just as aweful here too. Wet, cold and windy. Have to do a big shop but thankfully my son can take me. Even going from the front door to the car on the drive isn't pleasant.

I hope the weather changes soon for everyone.

Morning Belle, Island and Kath :-) <3

Not pleasant weather to be out and about, for sure.
When I am out, I try to fit in any needed visits / shopping etc. so that I don't have to go out on yet another day.

Glad you are noticing some improvement Island.
Think how great everything will look, when we do have sunshine :-)

Hope Fly can get that leak sorted asap after spending out on a new roof :-0

Keep warm and safe everyone.

Afternoon everyone :-) <3

We didn't see the sun, but did have a brief time of brighter gloom :-S

I see BBC Licence fee is to be increased.
The company could save a few pounds if they cut down on outside broadcasts.

On a local news report recently, there were 2 different reporters 'live' in the dark and in dark clothing, at two different locations.
We saw nothing that would add any clarity to the news reports and when you consider the camera teams and mileage, what must it have cost?

Steps down off soap box.
