Would you like us to lend you some of our Global Warming?

Apparently we have plenty of it even though we just had the wettest August in 15 years.

It's been very wet here too! All the farmers are complaining because they can't get the corn in. It's starting to germinate in the fields. The last two days have been okay, so the combines have been hard at it.
It'll mean the price of bread's going to go up (just hope they remember to reduce the price when the price of flour goes down again!!).

Yes I'm fed up with the weather also, but it's given us chance for lots of decorating only dining room and hallway left now. :grin:

I think part of the problem is the type of rain at the moment -- have you noticed that sometimes when it rains it can seem refreshing whereas at the moment it just feels wet and overcast -- and it is going on and on -- but the forecast is that it will be better tomorrow so sun dances tonight everyone please to encourage it.
