LOCAL WEATHER NOW AND FORECAST FOR TODAY
==============================

It is actually raining now but its so light the radar appears not to be picking it up
Once again we are into double figures with the early morning Temp.
The weathercam view shows a little misty cloud in the valley.  The earlier very light rain has stopped now (07:50) but i think it will be a while before it looks any brighter with this cloud cover - -
Local Weather forecast for today: 
The Met O is looking at a cloudy day but with some sunny intervals between 12:00 and 15:00 and no chance of any rain.  Yahoo weather is also looking to the same forecast and both indicate the max Temp will be 14c today

It was time to start on the bathroom project yesterday there are a number of jobs i can be getting on with before we rip everything out on the 6th of Nov.  I must remember to get some "before during and after photo's".  One job that i thought might involve pulling up the attic floor to achieve was fitting the extractor fan for the shower.  The preliminary look at it from upstairs proved fruitful because there was a handy 1 foot square piece of flooring right where i wanted to fan.  I cut the hole and connected it all up only to find a problem with the wiring on the isolator switch.  Once i resolved that we were good to go.  The fan is an xpelair ghost that's meant to be so quiet you can hardly hear it. It is quiet but i not "that quiet"

Sally worked in the garden while i wrestled with the fan and i joined her after i finished for a glass or two of wine
 Even though its well into Autumn the plants are still pushing out flowers due to the warm days we are having
 the Nasturtiums are particularly flowery at the moment
 this is our Zebra grass around one bit of the pond.  Its good for keeping one half of it in the shade in summer.  Sally noticed these seed heads which we don't reckon to have seen before.  It might be worth trying to gather some of them and try to propagate them
 This rose is still doing well
while the lovely scented one is on its lasts legs now
 This nastutium is growing up through the box hedge
 These plants have been cut back hard once already but even they are pushing out more flowers
the view out to the other side of the valley leaves you in no doubt that it is Autumn though with its vibrant rustic colours
we often get Bees that crawl onto the fornt of the cameras in the garden here's one having a go at the birdfeeder cam - - -

Its time for another day at the ATA before putting all the clocks back an hour tonight!

Always a red rag to a bull with me are any "pothole" stories This one from Sky News reckons councils fixed a pothole every 15 seconds last year.  I dont think many of them were in our area! The text goes on to say that the backlog of pothole repairs will take 14 years to complete - - -
