Forcast is for slightly cooler weather for the next 15 days.

I for one don't remember when we last had such blue skies, and for so long.

A long time ago schools and individuals could apply to the Met Office to become district weather recorders .

On acceptance a Stevenson screen with internal instrumentation , an anemometer / wind vane , a sunshine recorder and a rain/snow fall recorder would be supplied .

Internal to the Stevenson screen were wet bulb and dry bulb thermometers and an aneroid barometer .

Most important were the copious instructions and charts and the delightful log book .

There must have been different versions of the kit because some were basic and some very comprehensive .

Here in Deepest Devon today – 26 deg. outside, 24deg. in the workshop, a pleasant breeze all day, an aroma of roast beef from the kitchen and the prospect of a cool beer this evening. What could be nicer? !

Been cloudy all day here in NE Cheshire. Met Office says the max was about 19°C/67°F. Got a bit done in the garden, so quite thankful for the coolth. Still rather cloudy tomorrow, apparently, but hot with it. Deluge (weather warning posted) on Tuesday.Still, the car does need a wash.

In the carport today (mad or what?) working on the Austin Seven's spare wheel cover.

Last week I used Biostrip20 paint stripper (usual disclaimer) that worked really well, and today used one of those fancy cleaning discs in the L grinder to get down to bare metal, and it worked a treat also.

Finished with a coat of etch primer. Coach paint next.

Photos of the whole process in my Photobucket account, but I don't know how to do a link using iPad.

Tried everything but all I get is a long URLin blue letters etc.

Geoff – In recovery mode.
