    Raining here in sunny Portsmouth and very dull all day..and about the same tomorrow by the looks of it

    I can't wait for some sun and warmth as I'm a bit of a sun-worshiper

    Pissing down here today in (not so sunny) Wrexham, and looks like it's on for the day, as it's rather dark and dreary...

    I don't mind the occasional day like this, as it's an excuse just to hibernate, watch a couple of good movies, listen to some choons, and actually I quite enjoy walking in the rain, especially around the local park and leafy lanes, as I love the musty smell of rain in the air, the wet leaves and trees, and the sense of serenity it brings

    It's stopped raining here. Still dark and cold, though.

    So much for spring. It's a gloomy 8C out there at the moment.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Weather forecast tomorrow is a low of 23c and a high of 29c. Looks like I may have to keep using the air con.

    G'day from Port Douglas Queensland.

    I'll try bring some of the warmth back to the UK when I go back next week.

    Despite the BBC weather forecast promising warmth from the Med, it is 8c today, dark and drizzling.

    It just goes on and on and on.....

    That's why they changed it to 'climate change'. You can't claim 'global warming' when we are all freezing our nuts off.
