It was predicted but you never can be quite sure, I have been disappointed before. As we slept it started, but in the morning it was hard to say quite how much had fallen. A morning at The Buns, planting in mainly mizzle with a little drizzle, showed just how little it had penetrated into the soil. It would have to try harder. And this afternoon it did. Proper rain. Welcome rain.
Welcome Rain

Still waiting here. A few drops early morning but nothing since and I had to go out and water my new plug plants and seedlings 😦

It must have been very localised. I worked in the morning and my OH was surprised I had managed it. It wasn’t too bad where I was 10m away.

I’m glad you received rain: such joy. Your photo reminded me of intricately decorated marzipan cakes in a French patisserie.

Proper rain? None here yet. The sprinkler was called into action. Guess what? The slugs came out in force.
