25th August

Matt's looking happy this morning, even though he's probably not so much with working the last Bank Holiday of the year (what happened to the campaign for another bank holiday, perhaps in October??) with a bright yellow shirt to wake us up should we have had perhaps a glass of wine too many last night!!    And for us southerners it really is looking like a fab weekend, Yay! Lots of mentions of a 'cracking' day today  and suntan lotion being needed.

And after the next forecast I think it might be time for a bacon and egg butty to start the day off right!  Mmmmm...that was good!

Our Matt has been very busy today, he's on BBCi UK and World weather and Mr George spotted him on News 24 earlier too. He's looking very happy today for someone working through all this fantastic weather. I have to admire him for that, I'd be slightly upset! Perhaps he knows something we don't, perhaps we've got a late summer coming in!! Or perhaps he's got some time off coming up because he has been on A LOT lately!

He was right about today, it's been a scorcher down here. Our own personal thermometer was registering 27.4 today in the garden, and even I was sat half in the shade in the end. All good stuff.

How lucky have I been, set the DVD to record The Weather Show, which was duly cancelled because of 'breaking news', but I got two Matt forecasts instead, so can't complain really. And hopefully we will actually get to see The Weather Show at 2.30pm tomorrow, news permitting!!

I rather like this picture behind Matt, have seen it before, it's good.
