Earthquake!!! Blimey!!!!!. It's been bad enough here today, the rain was relentless at times and then the sun came out and it was really hot. The builder has been here all day. Furniture piled on top of each other while he laid down more wooden flooring. Then he plastered the walls. Just beading to go down tomorrow then a few coats of paint then the flame effect fire to be installed in the wall and hopefully that will be it for now. When the builder goes, as I guess you all have had this, it's a matter of putting everything where you want it then vacuuming all the dust away.

Thanks Polly, that will last me all week Morning everybody, awful weather here. Was supposed to be dry but with strong winds, instead there are intermittent heavy showers in the strong winds - the sort of rain that stings your face. Just as you are out of the car and heading for the supermarket it throws it at you, and the next downpour as you are heading back to the car. Roll on winter

I think the seasons are changing, we had better days in February than in August. Still, we've been lucky so far today. A little breezy but still quite mild.

I hate driving when there's gusts of winds, specially on the motorways. It hasn't been as bad as they forecast today. No heavy rain and just a little breezy.

Good evening. We have had a day of extremely strong wind, some sunshine, and a couple of early showers. I was in Lymington and it was almost impossible to walk at times due to the wind. I didn't go to the coast as it would have been blowing a gale there. I spent a lot of time in Waterstones in Lymington. I love books and could happily spend all day in a book shop. I was looking at the history of Japan and reading about the Nanjing Massacre. The brutality committed by the Japanese is unimaginable. How man can gain pleasure from inflicting pain on his fellow man is something I shall never comprehend. On a lighter note - I had a can of M&S G&T in the fridge. I thoroughly enjoyed it once I had put my shopping away.

Right - I've got a new Gene Wolfe podcast to listen to, so I'm off to Crystal Palace on the no 3 bus, then the 249 towards Streatham and Clapham, then I don't know what.
It's partly to try a new route out of Streatham, along a road I have never been on before. I may be some time.
