I’m tired of this drought now!

Yesterday was horrible, temperature wise. 30C (86F) and the wind just made it worse by being warm as well. Everything dried out so I had lots of watering to do when I came back home from work. It did help some but there are lots of roots looking for those few drops of water they […]

Just as chilly today.

It’s bit chilly again today (and they’re saying it will be the same tomorrow but turn warmer on Tuesday. We’re lucky if it reaches 18C (64,4F) today. I don’t mind after the long heatwaves we’ve had. The morning was quite nice though, no wind, the sun rising and a few birds singing. It must have […]

Still too hot.

It has been sticky warm all day (much warmer than they had guessed) with the exception when the thunder passed. It was a meh thunder to be honest and very little rain fell. The little rain did however make sure the humidity went all the way up to 100%. So I haven’t done especially much […]

Thunder.

It has mostly been really nice today, lots of sunshine, a few clouds and even some thunder when we were on our way back home after work. It was like the weather just wanted to remind us that we’ll have plenty more of that when it gets warmer. Well I like thunder but I hope […]

A typical summer day.

Very mixed weather here but it has had the same temperature all day long, 15C (59F). Not much to brag about but it is what it is. So I have actually worn a sweater all day even when the sun has been shining. It rained all the time when we were out on our morning […]

Lots of rain but still not enough.

They day started nice enough and since I really want the rain I shouldn’t complain about all the rain that fell for the rest of the day 🙂 However cleaning a pool when it rains is a bit more tricky than one might think, the surface becomes impossible to see through so one really doesn’t […]

We had company this morning.

Sunny morning and frost again but just below 0C (32F) so it didn’t feel that cold. The Cuckoo birds sound echoed all over the village and the bog. I heard it coming from north the first time and that means we’ll have another dry summer. The saying is that if one hear it from north […]

A very polite hunting dog :-)

  Today would have been so great if it hadn’t been for the biting cold eastern wind. The sun has been shining all day and if the wind has been coming from almost any other direction my garden would have been wind free, instead it has hit us hard all day except for in the […]

I’ve picked up my car.

  So they texted me long after they had closed that my car was fixed. I didn’t mind since I had the car I could borrow anyway so I went there this morning to pick it up. The exhaust pipe wasn’t broken thankfully but the seals where the different parts of the exhaust fume pipes […]

Rather dull days.

  I had to drive to the garage early this morning so they could fix the problems the car had and clear it so I can drive around with it legally 🙂 I was there just after 7 am and picked up the car I could have while waiting for mine. It is a small […]

Saint Lucia’s day.

We didn’t have an especially long morning walk today, we had walked perhaps half of what we usually do when I suddenly heard a shot not especially far from us. It wasn’t our hunters but in the castles grounds neighbouring to this area. Well even if they were outside where we usually walk I really […]
