Just a quick apology! Last week, Monday to be precise, I put a tent up. It was my cunning plan to keep the house clean for the summer. We lasted one, lousy night, as that was the night the monsoon started. It hasn't stopped raining since. Clearly that is my fault and therefore I'd like to grovel at the feet of the UK and say,
'I'm sorry! OK?'
I really can't be arsed to take the soggy tent back down at the moment so it'll have to stay up till at least next Wednesday. Please be advised to expect pants weather until this time.
Actually I feel really cool having a weather-making tent. Might sell it on ebay.... Oo, can't, it's not mine!!! A. if you're reading this, you've got a really magical tent that I'm carefully minding for you...
A ? Are you out there?
ReplyDeleteCome and get your bloody tent will you?
Actually we have been basking in rather nice weather for the last couple of days - not all bright and sun-blocky - but warm nonetheless.
Come to Sussex!
Mind you I have had a booming headache all day so there'll probably be a thunderstorm tonight. I'll come and get your blinkin' tent myself if there is!
Oh my gosh, that is too funny! I have a magical clothes line that has the same effect on the weather here in Canada. It can be a warm, bright, sunny day, I happily hang out my clothes on the line, soaking in the beautiful sunshine and smiling to myself, then I go inside make a cup of tea, and the downpour starts. Everytime!
ReplyDeleteMadameSmokinGun: I went to Convent School in W.Sussex, not sure the injunction is lifted yet....... nuff said!
ReplyDeleteIn Real Life: See, your magical clothes line is way better than my magical tent. If you notice your veg wilting it's a doddle to peg out some undies and sox and 'hey-presto' ...Rain! I've got to do all that erecting, pulling canvas and bending of poles in order to save my cucumbers... sigh, you are a very lucky girl.
Please send the tent over here, I am desperate for a bit of rain.
ReplyDeleteI' with Very B in C- would love the tent in Essex for a few days. The cracks in the lawn are getting big enough to swallow my chickens!
ReplyDeleteNo, keep then the tent up for another 6 weeks please...as we've had brilliant weather since it was erected (;-). Sue x
ReplyDeleteThis sure has been one temperamental summer so far, eh?
ReplyDeleteAh, so that's why we haven't gotten enough rain lately! You're hogging it all!
ReplyDeleteVery Bored in Catalunya: Will pack and send over magic tent.... IF IT EVER DRIES OUT!!!
ReplyDeleteMother Hen: Is it just me then!! I might start building Noah's Ark up here on the mountain!!!
Smiffy: Arghhh! Not you too Smithy!....
Technodoll: Oh goody, turns out Clee Hill has the same weather as Canada... putting on a song in your honour Technodoll ......
Brenda: Oh Blimey. The whole world's got better weather than me and my Canadian buddies... Will ship some over shortly Brenda... Although if the monsoon keeps up, my own personal Tsunami should reach you by next week...
