Extremes of weather

Rain
Well, good news (for once)! The weathermen are predicting a fantastic bank holiday weekend (can it possibly be true?)...with temperatures of up to 23 degrees! This has to be an excuse to get the new BBQ out, it's been sat in it's box since Flyingpops bought it at the end of last summer (at a bargain price from a Tesco seasonal clear out sale)...just have to hope it's nothing like last weekend, when the weather really couldn't make it's mind up at all...either torrential downpour (as pictured above) -
Sunshine
- (and this shot was only taken five minutes later) blazing sunshine, if you look closely you can still see the puddles...!  I certainly wouldn't want to have everything set out ready for a nice al fresco tea and suddenly be rushing for the living room door, soggy sausage in hand... ;)

In other news, Flyingpops mum Nanjan has come out of hospital after a scheduled operation, everything seems to have gone smoothly, but we just want to send you our love and hope that you get well soon (we would have sent flowers but apparently the house is already overflowing with them, so we'll get you some later)... ;)

We had that kind of rain last night. There was a massive downpour and then it just as suddenly stopped and was sunny again! I really hope the weather-man's right cos my parents are doing a BBQ for us all tomorrow night! :)

I think it's Saturday it's supposed to be the most hot, but it should be good...although saying that, the MET office have drizzle for tomorrow night (so it might have to be one of those indoor sort of BBQs)... ;)

Nanjan thanks you for the kind wishes, she is at home recovering with a sore shoulder but is ok as being driven to physio in poppy the beetle and being nursed by flyingpops...
