I agree it varies up north, but like you say its easier to breathe. You must be a bit further north than me I am near Leeds and its 12 degrees.

Have a good weekend. x

Your friend in Preston will be fine. It's much better for the lungs around here. Remember “n'er cast a clout till May is out”. 😍😘

Fulwood is quire near where I live, so weather is normally the same. Rain is a problem, we got in garden last week, it was sweltering, then it just dissapeared - I have never seen as much rain as in the last 12 months, it is now cold with it. Thank you Carol I hope so too - It really is gloomy.xx

Oh wow what a contrast .I am in the far south we have had lovely weather warm, can be a bit harder on your lungs and sleep. Although a fresh wind has helped whilst walking my dog ,very little 💦 so far but Don't want to jinx it. Hopefully it will get better up north soon

Don`t complain about 11 degrees. We live about 800 miles SOUTH of you, in the Lot department sw france and temp here, albeit before I was out of bed a mere 6 degrees. The sun has now put in an appearance and by midday should be closer to 20, fingers crossed. Have a good day everybody, Chris.

LissacFrance profile image
LissacFrance in reply to Patk1

well, looking out of my window, I see the clouds are starting to roll back in so temperature will drop quite dramatically. I`ll get some work done indoors instead of out in the garden.

Living in Manchester you would think we would be used to the rain, but can honestly say I have never known it so wet. I think we had almost two weeks of nice weather and got my garden back into shape and the washing done, since then its been back to rain and as you say cold. I put my summer bedding on and sent my winter quilt to be washed and have to bring out blankets. Fingers crossed this will take a turn soon we need good weather to perk us all up and get some of that vit d x

In the Midlands the sun is shining this morning but just at the moment I am wearing a thermal vest under my jumper!

Thank goodness for British weather - it always gives us something to talk about! 😉

As my son who lives in the Peak District would say "11 degrees is warm for these parts"😂.

Just glad you can breathe easier. Love and hugs. Jan xxx

Absolutely freezing in Appleton on Thursday when I took my granddaughter to footie. Coaches were wrapped up like it’s winter. I had a fleece on under my raincoat and was frozen too. Nicer today at M29. Xx😎
