grey skies, drizzle and 7șC, it had all been a dream 

Much the same here, just a tad warmer. Those Greek sunshiny dreams do keep coming back to haunt me, as well 
Summer sun seems a very long way off, unless I go stir crazy and book a flight

Take me with you, please, I'll be very good

Been raining since 0200, 16mm so far, and forecast to continue all day. A chilly 5C. Oh dear. 

Just reached 1" (25mm), same band of rain apparently pivoting slowly around all day long using Sheffield as its axis.
Still raining, still 5C. Oh dear oh dear!   

Having great difficulty at the moment summoning up a mental picture of azure skies, deep blue sea, a sandy beach, and w a r m t h.

Soggy, soggy, soggy. Must have really tipped down last night as the all the drainage ditches at the allotment site are full of water.

Probably be for the best - if you dream in lovely Mediterranean technicolour  then wake to sodden grey - it's much worse, believe me  #depressed

Very wet last night but no rain today and fairly warm.

Yesterday was lovely - quite warm in the sunshine. The polytunnel was scorchio when I went in. Today is as warm 9șC but feels colder as the wind is up and it's unbroken grey cloud. They're threatening more snow at the weekend

The sheep are leaving the maternity ward and coming back with the little lambs - far too cute!

Yesterday was horrible, cold, grey and drizzly - this morning is at least starting warmer at 9C and with some sunny bits  It's also quite breezy, so maybe not feeling as warm on the allotment, as it does in the shelter of the garden.
Perhaps I should just hide in one of the greenhouses with my cuppa and a book

Lashing rain and gale force winds.  Thankfully I got two days of work done up at the plot before this started.

We had a lovely spring like day yesterday, but today it is cold, blowy and there are some snowflakes drifting down

Exactly the same here

It's bright but it's been a very windy night and it's cold - just over 2șC at the moment. Thank goodness Calor delivered this morning - we ran out of gas yesterday so no central heating or hot water from tap and shower. The house is beginning to warm up but these thick stone walls take their time.

Stormy, overcast and very cold.  St Patrick's Day which is the traditional day here for spud planting but I don't think there will be many following that tradition this year.

everything has got a covering of snow and the wind is blowing it about. cold.

That is no joke    Thank goodness your delivery turned up today 

We have now been upgraded (downgraded  ) from light snow showers this morning to potentially heavy ones all day and overnight.  I guess you get to share the joy later as the front moves across the country 

Its not sticking on the roads here and seems mainly light blow about snow so far.
