Same ol' dark, damp and cold this morning but this afternoon, the Sun came out for a few hours. I managed a bit of work in the garden and very therapeutic it was too - first time in 7 - 8 weeks. Eventually gave up when I couldn't feel my fingers and toes. Looking forward to the next Sunny day.

High of 5c today and the usual thick black cloud and drizzle.
Weather forecasts for the next 2 weeks show basically the same every day, with a slight (2c) rise in temperature, next week. How long will this awful gloom go on ?

based on previous years it could be all over by the end of February or drag on until mid-June.
Rain here, that fine stuff that soaks you through. Forecast to continue until tomorrow night.

Rained all day here, it was misty, too.
We're nearly half-way through January now, only 6 weeks or so to Spring.
