Jol_BWFC Posted August 13, 2022 Posted August 13, 2022 (edited) Probably one for @Tonge moor green jacket - hot, dry and sunny for the next couple of days. Grass needs cutting. Good use of my weekend time, or better for the grass to wait until it’s not so intense? Edited August 13, 2022 by Jol_BWFC Quote

A sure fire way to nobble your grass is to cut it when in drought. When you do cut it, only take a bit off. The ground is going to need a lot of rain to get back to normal, so only stress the grass a little. Don't bone it!! Quote

Not in Crawley Posted August 13, 2022 Posted August 13, 2022 What is this 'grass' you speak of? Quote
bolton_blondie Posted August 14, 2022 Posted August 14, 2022 How i have survived today I will never know. That fucking man and scythe cider hangover and 30° heat doesn't work well. Quote
stevieb Posted August 14, 2022 Posted August 14, 2022 Spent 5 hours of the day reading in the sun while the ginger Mrs did housework. I think I've lost about 4 litres of sweat from my face since 5pm. Quote
Winchester White Posted August 15, 2022 Posted August 15, 2022 The missus booked the airport hotel and managed to get one without aircon in the bedrooms. Fucking hell it was warm last night. Quote
mickbrown Posted August 15, 2022 Posted August 15, 2022 The other night I eventually fell asleep on my back and sweat pooled in my eye sockets. Stung like a bastard when I woke up. Quote
Sweep Posted August 15, 2022 Posted August 15, 2022 It's supposed to be raining today....it's not....it's sweltering again, and currently 31C here Quote
gonzo Posted August 15, 2022 Author Posted August 15, 2022 Been threatening to piss down all day. Needs to get a shift on and just smash it down. Quote

tomski Posted August 15, 2022 Posted August 15, 2022 I’m missing the heat wave and am due back in work tomorrow. It would be fair to say I’ve been happier. Quote

Sweep Posted August 16, 2022 Posted August 16, 2022 Only 18C this morning, it felt lovely walking the dog. Hopefully we'll get a bit of rain later as well Quote

Not in Crawley Posted August 16, 2022 Posted August 16, 2022 Drizzle all day here in the North East, was lovely. Quote
BobyBrno Posted August 17, 2022 Posted August 17, 2022 Drenched at Lord’s. Probably the wrong type of rain. Seemed just as wet to me. Quote

If it carries on for much longer, we'll be having a hose pipe ban here soon enough. Shrubs with wilting leaves that I've not seen before. Quote
gonzo Posted September 6, 2022 Author Posted September 6, 2022 Some heavy thunder and lightning heading south east for you lot. Been mad here for the past hour. Was in the south sky then over to north west. All seems to be gathering south east now. Quote
