We got the exact same weather here (actually it's coming from you Brit guys  :twak:),
but what the heck: I got three weeks off work, so we're just getting the best out of it..  :)

Here's the weather forecast for Denmark...  ::) ::)



And it's nothing new..  ;)

I'm in the middle of laying our patio. No joking its taken me over 2 months now purely because of the weather  :o
I joked with the Mrs that maybe we should cancel the patio and lawn and just build an enormous roof lol..
The other option was to start gathering 2 of every animal  :D

I don't usually mind the rain, but it is a tad excessive atm :-\

Mind you it is keeping the tempreture and pollen down so it's not all bad :D
Give in, buy several Farmer's!!!!!!

It is vile, and difficult to remain good humoured about after weeks of it :(

I'm still sneezing too - not sure why or how the allergens are making it up my nose, but they are!

The sad thing is that it's such a huge year for for the UK, with the Jubilee and Olympics etc, and all of it will be remembered by the torrential downpours.

I hear ya! Perhaps it's mould spores instead of pollen with all the damp?

I'm still struggling to get around with my stupid broken toe, so I can't even run from the rain every time I get caught in it ::)

Ruby hates it too - who has a dog that won't go out in the rain?!

FANS of women’s beach volleyball were distraught last night after it was revealed competitors may have to hide their curves at the Olympics.
Bad weather could deny male spectators the sight of tanned and toned athletes cavorting in bikinis.

Tickets for matches have been among the most sought after of the Games. British pair Zara Dampney and Shauna Mullin caused a traffic jam when they trained in skimpy outfits in Parliament Square, Central London.

But warnings of continuing cool, wet weather this month threaten to put a dampener on things if the girls don frumpy shirts and leggings.

Shauna, 27, said: “Once the temperature drops below 16°C we are allowed to wear long leggings and long-sleeved tops.”
Kelly: "Daddy, what makes men cheat on women?
Al : "Women!"

To me, the worst bit is the fact that the longest day passed us by nearly a month ago - when it should have been still bright at 10pm it had actually gone dark by 8pm due to all the black clouds.
So, now to make matters worse the nights are drawing in  - with noticable effect.

And, believe me - I HATE those long dark winter nights - Hate them... :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant:

Even if August picks up, we'll only see september before the temperature begins to drop.


Utterly depressing..!!!
I don't claim to know it all, but what I do know is right.

I am supposed to be taking some nice outdoor shots of the van so we can sell it. Yes, please do buy this vehicle so you can hide in it instead of getting out and having a holiday! ::)

:ahhh Can we somehow make this thread invisible to outsiders? I've been trying to talk my GF into moving abroad (the Netherlands and Scotland currently being my most prominent choices), and she hates rain and cold weather... :-\ We've been having 30+ Celsius for the past couple of months (and more like 40 the last 10-15 days), going to the beach every other day or so, and she thinks that summer came late this year. :-\
