It started a nice bright and dry day but after lunch we had a shower and the chilly breeze has come back. We had the radiator in the sitting room turned off but it’s back on tonight. It’s going to be a chilly evening walk so muttly won’t mess about and won’t want to go far.

After a wet rainy night it's dried up a bit.  ( degrees and although the ground id still damp it's not raining.  No rain forecast for today and there may even be some sunny spells..

All the vans were rocking, but just due to the strong winds hitting the site overnight, felt like we were at sea for a couple of hours and management woke me to complain she couldn't sleep due to van movement.

Milder dry and breezy this morning. May be shorts later on

We are in SW Scotland, have been since Monday, and weathers been abysmal. With knackered water pump and no-one having one I need, we've cut trip short and heading home. We were in Ayr and Troon yesterday and at Troon waves were crashing over sea wall. 
Maybe we'll try again September.

A bright start to the day and it feels warmer than last night. Management is starting to do green house things in pots. I believe lettuce are amongst them. The strawberries and tomatoes are showing signs of life so hopefully nice fresh salads and puddings later if the squirrels and dicky birds don’t get in first.
I have started a major chuck out or re locate in the shed and workshop. Some things have gone next door for him to use during his fire engine restoration. I knew there were some air lines in there but there is enough to go round the block. Four cans of Waxoil, two Jerry cans, two twelve tone axle stands. A box of assorted unmarked Landrover bits. Several boxes full of imperial nuts and bolts. I think there will be a trip to the dump because the trailer has more junk already stored in it.
My aim is to have the workshop with no junk and the can’t throw out stuff in the shed leaving room for managements potting table and garden tools. This is the trouble that starts when we are not away on our travels.

Sorry to hear about the trip Paul.
We have hot water back in the house now, plumber was really good and didn't try to rip us off.
Back to pressure washing this morning, broken the back of it now and my back is not much better!
Few very light showers this morning and sun peaking through now so siesta time beckons.
Chicken and bacon pie for lunch one of my favourites.
Have a great day all

Been glorious here today. Getting van ready for Ireland, so warm, just t shirt on top....

Sorry yr experience not same Paul.....

We only drink bottled water. Even here in the house, so always have 10l + in the van, hard if you want a shower tho.....

Bottled for us too at home. Seeing what comes through our old pipes it seems only sense. Lidl Carrick Glen at 39p a bottle not the end of the W
orld

Over cast at dawn, good walk with Tag though , then of to Filey for the day.
Site busy ,very wet and muddy on the grass.  New wcs at the county park and chemical toilet dump.

Still nice evening here.....

Only buy sparkling water as I have to drink quite a lot of it. In van ideal as when boiled it is exactly the same once boiled as plain would have been....

Heavy rain showers recently started, Highland spring for us and boiled tap water ,then cooled for Tag, tap water here has a horrible Taste.

Here the water is a solution of H20 and calcium! Mostly calcium I suspect!
The only car colour to buy is silver so when you wash it the grey/whitish spots don't show!

My window cleaning guy uses purified water to 1 part per million. It starts of at 4 to 500 parts per million!

Hopefully the bright start will hold for this morning because we are having a run to the tip, sorry recycling centre.
I emptied the trailer yesterday and pilled up the junk from the shed. Because things were shut during the pandemic I put some junk in the trailer and forgot it. It was shock to see how much has accumulated in there.
In case people wondered why we don’t take the trailer instead of emptying it. The last time it was used was when we moved house with my workshop equipment in it. The only tow bar we have now is on the Rienza and it seems a bit excessive for a tip run.

Quite warm this morning. 10 degrees and sunny at the moment but a chance of rain later on.

Lovely start for the early shop, high tide so river which is about 250 yards from the house is nearly bursting it's banks, pretty though.
Seems to be quite a lot of emmets about, old gatehouse to where we live is a holiday rental now and has been taken the last couple of weeks, £650 for four nights and it isn't all that, give me a French aire for a few euros any day.
Forecast looks good for next few days so big push to get outside work back on track after all the rain.
Have a great day all

Lovely day yesterday if a little on the cool side. Warmer today at 15°c later but there's a high chance of rain right through and for much of the weekend.

Take it easy.

Missed it Tony,will find the event later, lobster and crab to expensive in the eateries here, the wee harbour hutties sell fresh smaller portions for the trippers and gulls. 
Nice dry morning, lovely sunrise with Tag earlier , 2 wash loads onto take advantage of the mild wind
Have a nice day.
