There’s fields of the stuff planted around Thanet, always smells like farts driving through the area when they’re close to harvest!

No, but car is...

Even hotter today, expecting a storm later. Guess who just took a 6-person Surrey bike out for an hour! 🥵

First day of Autumn according to some people.
Did notice a lot of leaves on the ground yesterday in Hyde Park which I thought was too early!

Autumn eh? Awesome. Dubai is only 45C apparently, so that's good :lol:

IIrc meteorologists consider it the start of autumn, astronomers work to the solstices and equinoxes and use the times we're more familiar with (e.g. September 23rd for this year). Either way, today was pleasant enough 8-)

We've had - and are still having - some rain today. The wetroads site could be updated to simply "all of them".
Full moon tonight; no chance of seeing it, I'm glad I got a clear peak at it last night (when it was also full).

The rain can really fuck off now, can’t remember the last time we had over a week on non stop rain...

Countryfile on Sunday said most of the uk had only had 1, maybe 2, depending on area, rain free days this month, and we've had rain at some point every day since 🙁

Local news yesterday said that East Anglia has had 98% of the normal total expected rainfall in October, during the first 15 days of October...

It was lovely here today, but my lawns are nothing but mud now. They’re going to need returfing thanks to being completely waterlogged for a couple of weeks.

What you need is a nice thick carpet of moss growing over your lawn. It's like walking on a (slightly squelchy) cushion of air

It’s quite windy today.
Driving North I thought my Defender had 400 bhp. Returning South I actually thought it was in limp mode as I was topping out at just over 60 mph :lol:

My father's gone to Ross-on-Wye; good news was he left the windy warning area, bad news is he's entered a rain warning area :roll:

Mito, I wonder if sailing techniques would help when driving into a headwind?
