From the B.B.C. weather page just now, 1.45 p.m


Monday 7 June 2010 to Sunday 20 June 2010
High pressure builds to provide a drier spell

The northwesterly flow is expected to decline as high pressure builds from the west. Although still unsettled at first in northern and eastern parts, all areas are expected to become drier and more settled.

Near average temperatures are expected to rise above average in the south. rainfall will be below average although close to it in the north and east early in the period.

How do they know? Just keep fingers crossed.

Richard, I'm not even looking at the weathe forecast until a couple of days before when I have to decise whether to put the large gazbo up.

Crow sister, what is there to prepare? You just need to bring something to put on the BBQ, unless you're going to provide us with some gourmet dish!
Will see some of you at Pigs ear and we can discuss food for BBQ & Knockholtg

EssexGirl, nothing much really! I was getting in the way in your kitchen last time, making up wee things on skewers and begging oil and salt and pepper... when really I should've got it all sorted before leaving home.

Not exactly gourmet but I could bring homemade flat-bread & hummus to share, if anyone fancies some on the side?

Sorry to say I won't be able to make it, yet again.

My knee, which has been deteriorating quite rapidly in the last month or two, has decided it won't operate today.

After a long day yesterday, including an hour of performing standing up, it is twice the normal size this morning, and too painful to walk on.

Have a great time, and I'll be thinking of you all loading up on that marvellous summer ale, while I spend the day popping Ibuprofen/Paracetamol cocktails.

See you all later

When I done drunken sailor I was drunk so it was a complete waste of time .
I forgot everything?
I was fascinated by the Mandolin accompaniment during Over The Hills.
Due to the fact I see with me eyes shut I failed to notice how close Richard was but I heard every note and chord change it was like he was playing in my Ear.
A lovely sound and good timing
