That sounds about right. That will be why my basil has turned up its toes and Madame la Voisine's fruit has all fallen.
PS What a fun pic!
Was better weather in Lancashire UK by the look of your figures. We certainly did not have that amount of rain. Wot a surprise especially for Lancs!!!
Our Basil, which we grow from seed and planted out before we went back has survived, just. The only thing that has grown well is the grass!
Lets hope for some sun over the next few weeks.
Beautiful photograph, Tim.
The stats back up your weather rants. Staffordshire felt better but I haven't got the stats to prove it. It is certainly wonderful as I type.
