Not sure if I've done the right thing.

I've just hung the washing out & the sun is so strong, it was burning my neck as I was pegging the clothes out on the line. The sky to the South is blue with not a cloud in sight. Looking to the North though, the sky is very black over the South Downs.

I think this will be a day for keeping a beady eye on the weather. Happy "fluffing" day everyone.

Washing is out. A light breeze, sunny but not overly warm. Should be dry by the end of the day.

Terrific! A light rain shower over lunch. Hopefully, that's all it was and I won't have to wash the lot again.
