This morning at 5.15 when I got up, it was beautiful sunshine.
But by 5.45am, a thick fog had suddenly developed.
However! by 7.30am the fog has vanished and the sun is now back and it looks like it will be a very warm, pleasant day.
I'll be stuck in an office in an old building that will still be cold (very thick 16th century walls and half-timbered) but hey, there's the weekend to look forward to!
We might do a barbecue. Well, it IS National Barbecue Week in Britain! Though this will be the first day of suitable weather.
And, of course, no Mormon church on Sunday! Hurrah!

Well, here we are, Sunday and the weather is rough
It is a Sunday in late May and supposed to be our summertime in Britain.
The reality is that it has been windy and rainy for several days. So much so that you could be forgiven for thinking it was early October rather than towards the end of May!
My mother tells me she has had to have her heating on, so cold was it earlier in the week.
It is supposed to be National Barbecue Week from 30 May (details at National Barbecue Week) but unless there's a major change of weather I think all the burgers, sausages, fish, steaks, chops, etc, will be cooked and eaten in doors, instead!
Ah well, perhaps it will get better, soon? One can only hope...)
