This time last year we had been swimming in the pool for a month. I have just had to pump the pool to waste as it started to overflow.



Are the seasons going backwards????

But isn't it fantastic to be getting such late rain! Even if it is too darn chilly!

I understand the dam at Gecitkoy is full again, smile......

At least it means gardens don't need to be watered and all the wells etc will still be filling up instead of emptying as normal at this time of year

Will the price of vegetables come down in price? The farmers must be loving this unusual inclement weather. I've never seen the countryside looking so lush and green for this time of year.

Looseboots on Accuweather the forecast for saturday isn't too bad, certainly not like today (or tomorrow if it's to be believed). You may get your wish after all. Good luck

Its not just Kibris Turkey is cold and very windy, we are just North of Bodrum unable to get any further North until the Northerlies abate. Monday looks like its changing.

London temps. were higher than Athens this week, and as far north as Ayrshire

Scotland, we have had great weather for weeks. Hardly a drop of rain, wall to wall sun

was sunbathing today and it was 19o and did not drop below 18 before 8 pm plus still light

at 9 pm Maybe I won't come over after all!

Beautiful here today in North Wales. However, I have been in North Cyprus this time of the year and it's been really hot and sunny...

Nowhere near full, in fact the reservoir depth-gauge is not even in the water! It's been the driest winter on record for 20 years. OK the rain has been more spread out so it seems to have been a wet one but it has not really been as wet as the island needs this winter.

The weather is beautiful right now in England. All the parks & gardens look so colourful for Easter.

Can't imagine it to be raining over there now!
