One of the most hideously vile, tediously unvaried and unappealing months of all time. Absolutely nothing decent on offer. Barely any sun, no convection, hardly any warmth, a couple of frosts and no snow. Just perpetual grey skies with repulsively chilly days and disgusting mild nights. Yet again conditions worse than a bad November 🤮

Makes last March seem brilliant by comparison. I spent the end of that revolting month in London and the weather was so foul it beggared belief. Should be a long long time before anything as repellent as that would disgrace the final third of the month but I am off there again tomorrow and not only does it look every bit as rank as last year but if anything even worse. It would seem 6am on Saturday is the only time there will be any sun 🤬

The bare minimum you could expect was a couple of reasonable days in a week. Now it's just week after week of relentless cloud and rain. The UK climate truly has been relegated into the lowest tier of utter garbage alongside bleak sparsely populated outposts like the Faeroes, Falklands and Aleutians. A poisonous dump of a country unfit for human habitation 🤢

I really do detest cold in spring, especially the kind of weather that next week is looking like bringing. Cold, cloudy, wet and windy... yuck, what a disgusting combination. You can forgive it if it's cold, calm and bright (April 2021) or if there is at least some wintry potential, but there looks to be very little of either of those things. All in all, just useless.



We need to come to terms that UK climate had gone worst and lost 3 seasons for good now. Autumn all year around are going to be like that for good and  need to survive this nasty climate change. Having the conservatory built next month not  for fun but to use for drying my washing clothes so no more outside due to aggressive daily rain and warmth for the house as summers getting colder and wet.  For sure France and rest of EU will continue warm to hot with lot of sunshine.

Jeez that's an expensive tumble dryer, whatever floats your boat Jiries

To be honest though, from your often posted messages, I think most of us have come to terms with this years or decades ago, it's probably on you to catch up in reality... summers are obviously not becoming colder, quite the reverse, however as they do they may well get wetter in the same way that most of the Med has more rainfall than the UK, it's just more concentrated.

Can't believe how high the temperatures are in the SE quarter of England again.

Another very depressing day up here. Drizzle all day and 7 C. We've had one or two brighter days such as Sunday and we reached 14 C but a one off!

Can you explain where you get tumble drier idea as I not mentioned buy one or never had one?  Explain in details about your strange  posts and you don't post in other threads and reply other people posts?  Ex;plain why you only reply my posts if you don't like it? 

 am standing my views about the climate getting much worst with non-stop Autumnal rain, cloud and winds and no sign of tend of it on 1st month of suppposely Spring month.

Once again explain fully about your strange posts. thank you.

The suggestion is that many people who wish to dry their clothes inside buy a tumble dryer for that purpose whereas you seem to be buying a slightly more expensive option, a conservatory.

He need to fully explain about why he doesn't post others reply but only mine and if he have a problem that he should tell us in here in public. 

Yes there lot of uses on those apart from drying clothes, will use for sitting there, sorting Lego parts that need bright area that i sell online and some flower plants on pots to grow on the window sills,, the seeds I borught from Cyprus cannot be grown outside to grow inside.  

Last time i rent a house with it and it dry the clothes super fast in 30mins if sunny or 1 hour or so if cloudy so no needo to put outside ever again, with the ongoing rain attack every day I won't worry anymore.

Blimey, nerve touched whoops, I haven't replied to one of your posts for well over a year that I can remember so not sure how you come to that deduction, and yes doctormog had it exactly correct, I was making a joke that you could just buy a tumble drier, it would have been a lot cheaper than building a conservatory but each to their own. Thankfully no rain here today so just put the washing outside, phew...

Just to confuse the issue, my tumble dryer is inside the conservatory so it warms that up! Too heavy to lift upstairs, not enough room downstairs in this terrace house.

And Jiries is to some extent right, the conservatory dries clothes quite well, provided of course that the sun comes out which doesn't often seem to happen in Jiriesland. I use my tumble drier only if I need something dried in under a few hours, so perhaps once a month.

I never own one as don’t like it and costly to run it I just leave the washing dries out in the living room that take over 24 hrs.  Normally I put outside from this month to October but with on going nasty climate change to rainy all year round will use the conservatory indefinitely regardless the weather now.

Will Jiries' conservatory, in time, join his shed in the pantheon of TWO legends. I wonder?

This time will be different as the doors to the living room will be open all day from dawn to dusk so won't be super hot like the shed that often reach 50C plus most likely in the low 40's as the heat will keep feeding the house.  Might get to 50C or more if the doors closed and trap the heat if we are not at home.

It was great to have some sunshine over the weekend, not just as a morale boost, but also because the solar hot water panels kicked in, providing water at 55C yesterday. Back to square one today, though.

The weather has not been great overall this month but the coming week or two if anything looks worse. Cold, unsettled and potentially wintry at times.

Where was that wintry weather during the winter when we are actually looking for that?😡
The north of Edinburgh, usually always missing out on snow events which occur not just within the rest of Scotland or the UK, but also within the rest of Edinburgh.

In January here. Currently it is a rather unpleasant 3.3°C with persistent rain. Not very nicel

Not here in Edinburgh it wasn't although I do recognise that there was a lot more in the way of wintry weather to the north of the Central Belt during that period.

It's just a shame that you actually had to go that far north to virtually get any wintry weather at all during the actual winter although I wouldn't exactly be expecting you to complain about that of course.
