At last – a bit of sunshine! It feels like it should be May time, not July – where is the year going to! The jet stream is on the move north so fingers crossed we're in for at least 12 hours of nice weather. We spent last week in North Wales in a caravan, in the rain – not the most inspiring family
Right, that's it – I've had enough of all this rain, it's about time we had a decent bit of weather. Except I've just read all about the Jet Stream being to the south of the UK, when normally at this time of year it's to the north, so it's unlikely we're going to see much
Well it's all happening around here. It's Safety Afloat Sunday tomorrow and the crew of the Audlem Lass plus a wide assortment of hangers on have been here for the last day or two setting up. They're doing a sterling job and have braved the terrible weather to set up the marquees. Angus
What an exciting week it's been (apart from the weather). We've been building a bridge. Well, not exactly Angus and I, because clearly that would be quite difficult. That's not to say we couldn't knock up a perfectly respectable bridge if we tried, it's just that you probably wouldn't

When will it EVER stop raining??? It feels like it's been raining forever and the caravan site is at serious risk of becoming another marina! We've had to cancel all the caravans for the Bank Holiday Weekend which has caused me much angst – it would be fair to say it has caused me the odd sleepless
We seem to be having all the seasons in one day today! Wind, rain, hail, sun and now flat calm. Poor Colin has been out doing a spot of work on the ends ofthe jetties and has just come back in resembling a rather drowned out (water)rat. I've got a new trainee here today – Angus has a day off at
