Just a momentary relief then! Better than none at all :) We are expecting thunderstorms tonight 🤞🤞 we need some rain! Sorry its getting hotter so quickly. That's a really lovely photo Davey, thank you. xx

in reply to leo60

I love the smell of electricity after a thunderstorm 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

leo60 in reply to

And the smell of slightly wet ground after its been dry for a long time :) xx

in reply to leo60

Oh yes 😛😛😛

in reply to leo60

Wet grass is better ooooh I forgot what wet grass smells like 😂😂

leo60 in reply to

So have I! And mown grass is a distant memory too!! Can’t wait! It will probably miss us, it usually does! 🥹😒 xx

in reply to leo60

Grass doesn't grow here it's astro turf or wild brown grass and stuff like chickweed 😂😂😂😂

Well for the first time in my life I’m able to gloat about living in the NW 😂 it may be grim up north ( it’s really not ) but my garden is blooming, my lawn is lush green and on Monday the rain never stopped 🌹🌻🌸🌼🌺 . Sorry I just couldn’t resist 😬 but my heart does go out to you and I honestly don’t know how poor Davey is coping , my daughter was in Greece two weeks ago and couldn’t wait to get home , she said it was horrendous, too hot to go anywhere or do anything and she loves the sun and hot weather !

in reply to Thepainterswife

Where abouts was your daughter ? Rhodes is classed as the hottest of the Greek islands and lindos is the hottest part of the island if it's 45degrees here it's 50degrees in lindos because it's in a basin . It's not normally like it as been this year but global warming as caused lots of problems all over the world . In honesty I feel like a chicken being slowly roasted 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I’m not sure where my daughter was Davey , she and her husband are hardly ever in the uk , they’re both self employed and if a cheap getaway comes up off they go ! They ve Just today left for a week in Prague They got married in Rhodes and have both been to other parts of Greece before ,they love it but for the first time ever my daughter complained about the heat - I never thought I’d hear that from her so I know it must be really bad ☹️

Heck Val, I'm envious of your daughter an son in law. Never had opportunities like that.

Thepainterswife profile image
Thepainterswife in reply to CDPO16

I’m envious too Carole , we couldn’t even go to the wedding because Geoff was too poorly ☹️

CDPO16 profile image
CDPO16 in reply to Thepainterswife

That's very sad Val, I'm sorry that you had to miss such a special day xx

Thepainterswife profile image
Thepainterswife in reply to CDPO16

Yes , it was touch and go , I had the outfit sorted and Geoff wasn’t on oxygen then but in the end we decided it would be too stressful for him and there wouldn’t have been any pleasure for anyone if he’d been poorly so it was upsetting but the right decision 🙂 xx

in reply to Thepainterswife

Well you made the right decision I was asked to give my god daughter away in Glasgow but obviously I can't fly but even if their was a possibility of it anything could happen and i could have made a happy day a sad one . But my heart goes out to you both for not being able to be there

Thepainterswife profile image
Thepainterswife in reply to

That’s the thing it wouldn’t have been fair and the main thing was she should have a happy day . She’d been on her own for 9 years after her partner died at 35 leaving her with three children under 11 and 7 months pregnant with the fourth so our priority was that she and the grandchildren should have the best time , which they did 😊.

in reply to Thepainterswife

I totally agree with you and I'm sure she as some beautiful new memories. It's what we do for those we love .

in reply to Thepainterswife

Surprising just how many people come to Rhodes to get married there's a beautiful church that does a lot of weddings in kalimbia harbour such a beautiful little church

Thepainterswife profile image
Thepainterswife in reply to

They were married on the beach , we couldn’t get there but the photos are stunning 😍

in reply to Thepainterswife

I'm so pleased that the day went well shame you couldn't go but your daughter as the memory of the day.

it will be more humid after storm and that will fee l even warmer. have not experienced greek thunderstorms /it was in june/july when I was there every year but we had high winds. not good on the water sometimes with water washing over top of small boats and ferries being diverted to other places as happened to us . Davey have you been on the ferry to Symi yet?

in reply to Jaybird19

No I have worked security on the ferry from Folkstone to Holland and that had some serious rough moments 😂😂😂

Jaybird19 profile image
Jaybird19 in reply to

go to Symi and take some photos of the beautiful houses that were built by the venetian merchants many years ago. I am sure they must still be there.

in reply to Jaybird19

We have some here we also have the Italian church here in kremasti which is beautiful inside and out. I can't even go to symi because of my meds I have to go on my machine six times a day so it makes trips out like that impossible

That sounds lovely. I’m a bit of a Southern Country on the rocks person, but only on rare occasions!

in reply to helenlw7

You know something I haven't had a southern comfort in probably thirty years I used to love it

Thepainterswife profile image
Thepainterswife in reply to helenlw7

Omg I’d forgotten about Southern Comfort 🤦🏻‍♀️ Someone bought me one years ago and I had the most horrendous hang over - literally from one drink , never touched it since - although I have had copious amounts of other drinks with no Ill affects 🤔😂

in reply to Thepainterswife

My all time favourite is mead . Proper honey mead

It’s lovely here. Apart from dull and looks full of rain. My thermometer is saying 17.9 at the moment. It will probably go up to about 22 degrees.

in reply to Mavary

It was 36 at nine o'clock here 😂😂😂

Mavary in reply to

Too hot for me. I had 38 by my back door when it was really hot here., I pulled my curtains and had the fan on but it was still stifling hot. It’s 18.4 outside here at the moment. So quite nice.

in reply to Mavary

I'll swap 👍🏼😂😂

You usually find when you have a thunderstorm it cools down a bit. Never mind it’s going the right way now. It’s nearly September.

in reply to Mavary

We've got to go until end of October before it is time for long trousers 👍🏼😂😂😂😂😂

Strange how the thunderstorm didnt clear the air like it usually does, it has cooled quite a bit here in the North of England, thankfully . I think this year has been the hottest the world has ever seen and cant imagine having summers like this every year. Perhaps this will give the powers that be a kick in the bum to replant the rain forests, we live in hope. In the meantime get that ice in front of the fan Dave and keep cool anyway that you can x

in reply to Izb1

What you had as a heatwave is our usual temperature during the summer but it is excessive this summer and I can't see it dropping until October when we usually go from shorts to long trousers 😂😂😂

Izb1 profile image
Izb1 in reply to

Yes excessive heat for all. I was saddened when i saw the news and couldnt believe just how bad this year has been for alot of countries with scorched brown earth, lets hope the rains come along soon to cool things down x

Mankind has not been good to the gift we were given its been abused since the industrial revolution

That’s a really lovely photo DB. Shame you’re getting the heat. The UK doesn’t cope with adverse weather 🥸

in reply to Stratos20

You wouldn't believe how many Brits out here with young kids no t.shirts no hats and not carrying bottles of water absolutely crazy saw one little lad about five his back and neck bright red and he kept asking for a drink his dad said he had to wait till he got back to the hotel . I stopped the family outside my friends restaurant and gave the little lad a bottle of water he said thanks but I really wanted to slap his dad for being so irresponsible. It's crazy
