UK Outlook for Saturday 18 Aug 2007 to Monday 27 Aug 2007:
The unsettled weather pattern looks set to continue well into this forecast period, but there is some hope that the weather may become more settled later. During the weekend there is now more scope for another spell of wet weather, especially for the southwest, though some areas in the east and north may miss the worst of the rain. During the following week there are a few signs of more settled conditions with some sunshine at times, although showers, locally heavy and thundery are still possible at times, and all areas are at risk of these. Temperatures should gradually recover to average, so at least it should feel warm in the sunshine, though there is little sign for any really warm weather at this time.

Well despite a downpour of a shower on Sunday while in the cafe it's been pretty good for a little while now. But forecast for tomorrow is for an inch of rain. I blame the parents (of Bigtallfatbloke)

I live in Scotland. Nuff said. It looks like 2007 will be the year summer never came...

Does that keep the midges at bay, or has it been a bumper year for them?

None of them buggers here but up north the midge season has started, unfortunately it isn't hugely cold so I imagine they'll be out in force

We'll be joining you in Sutherland in around two weeks' time so you'd better get the weather and the midges sorted for us!

...well I reckon somewhere along the line it's all George Bush's fault....might as well blame someone for ruining things so it may as well me him....either him, or the Chinese who have been firing chemicals into the sky to create rain....maybe they need to learn to shoot straight.

...but fear ye not...I have devised a cunning plan involving black rubbish sacks some rubber bands and a lack of fashion sense....I will not surrender!
