Grey. Depressing. Wet. SAD. I'm afraid I had to resort to the voddie frappe to survive today here in UK. And the forum....

Well
Here in Kavvadades we had 2 mm of rain overnight and , at 9:15 am , the outside temp is around 16deg. We're down in the valley a bit here but still a good comparison for Arillas. ( Which usually has an extra degree or two in reserve )

I havent been outside yet, but... today looks promising.... sunshine!!!  It looks like an early morning in Arillas without the views!!
If you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.

Sunny day in London town today but chilly wind and only +10 degrees. Could be worse and it will be tonight as the forecast is -1 :(

Life is good ;)

So , I don't suppose that anyone wants to know that it's currently 21 deg in the shade here, at 5:45 pm,  and that Arillas has, once again, given us another day to be very proud of.

( Wont tell ya then )

I was hopping about outside in the sun this afternoon, it was a bit cool but it didn't matter, cos my olive tree has born fruit or should I say olives whilst I was in Arillas, not a lot but  who's counting. Thanks Maggie and all the other persons with their help and info when I asked for it last year. TTFN Mick

Frost on the windscreen, little bit of a scrape to see the way to work.
Not too warm lunchtime when I went out to get a bite.
Then home In the Dark.

Mick, now you have to put your net down, and when you've picked them all, you have to soak them for weeks!  lol..

As Victor Meldrew would probably say "I couldn't believe it".

I had a nightmare journey home tonight due to snow, and this is in Warwickshire where we don't expect it. The M40 was blocked, there were lots of minor accidents, and visibility was awful.

Here is one accident - where one car skidded into the back of someone.




And this was the Garden when I got home.




Beam us to back Arillas Scotty - please.........
