Rain has started here and there are rumbles of thunder. Expected to be showery possibly until tomorrow evening. Weather warnings for today and tomorrow. Did some food shopping this morning so won't be going out today or tomorrow.

Good thinking El
Still dry here but looking ominous
The famous Toccata and Fugue by Bach:
The clip gives you some idea as to just how complex playing a pipe organ is. The layout of organs varies but this one shows the three keyboards in use and the pedals also act as a sort of keyboard. So the organist is using hands and feet to play.
Part of Cheltenham has a red flood warning for imminent flooding of properties and roads due to localised thunderstorms and flash flooding

Good grief
A few schools in Cheltenham have been closed due to flooding. The most serious one is a junior school (very near the area with a red flood warning) where the rain caused a partial rood collapse. Not known yet when that school will be able to open again.

The first photo is the overall winner, not surprisingly.

Good morning everyone it's a little misty this morning but not as bad as last night when it was really foggy, dry so far.
Enjoy your day everyone
Good morning everyone
Rainimg here and could last much of the day, heaviest in the morning, less in the afternoon. Threat of thunderstorms this afternoon. The Environmental Agency has removed the read warning for that area in Cheltenham - seems that they were removing overgrown weeds from the small river Chelt there.
I hope everyone has a good day

I agree, those cheetah cubs were cute but it would be a big mistake to cuddle them

Moonie, rain had eased off for a while here but is back. Finished off a client's accounts and tax returns this morning and returned their documents through their door whilst it was relatively dry. Walked to the client and back - they live just down the road and are the nearest clients I've got.
Good afternoon aw sad news about Dame Vera
how are you all?
I watched one episode of bb and remembered why Iβd gone off it π€¦ββοΈ Last night I had a nice long hot bath instead

Iβm glad all is well. I bet Miss Bramble and your mum are pleased to have each others company
But even though you have some charges to look after I know you will be missing Miss Bramble
All is okay here fankoo
They love each other! Bramble was excited when I dropped her off, it wouldnβt surprise me if theyβve been out for a little walk together.
any swan action at your park?

Well the last time I was up several months ago mum was nesting but I havenβt been up since. After what happened to our last family I donβt want to get to close because I still miss them and itβs upsetting for me because all I will see is them and the places they used to be
Summer, that's nice for you, Bramble and your mother to have a little bubble

Locally, it's just become the wettest day of the year so far and it's still raining. At least it's been relatively steady and no thundery downpours so far.

Itβs finally stopped raining here El
Been speaking with an elderly client who had been rung by "HMRC", that they were investigating her and would send the police to her as she was so rude to them She was suspicious of them, didn't give them any information and eventually put the phone down on them. I reasssured her that the caller was a criminal trying to scam her and that she wasn't under investigation by HMRC. I said it would be worth mentioning this to other people she knows in the area she lives as the criminals seem to concentrate on one area at a time.

Good morning everyone it's a grey sky this morning. We sure did get some rain but the garden looks wonderful after a good soaking.
How lovely for your Mum and Bramble Summer. I hope you manage to work out the changes needed successfully.
Enjoy your day everyone
