What's wrong???

The mold between my toes is drying up. Where is the rain??

High pressure, baby!

We're unlikely to see rain in the next few days - there might be some patchy drizzle around at times from Tuesday, but that should be it.

I must live in a good part of the country! I moved over (end of December) expecting rain every day and I've barely seen any. It's been primarily sunny... And warm enough to have windows open on most days.

Where are you living in the UK?

It's a town called Pererborough, Cambridgeshire.

I know it (well, sort of - my colleague is from Peterborough and I've had to change trains there before). I live in Lincoln, so I'm about 65 miles north of Peterborough.

As most of the UK weather comes from the west or the southwest, Eastern England tends to do quite well weather-wise... a lot of the rain and low cloud gets 'taken out' as it moves over the high ground, so it doesn't rain as much by the time it gets here. Peterborough only gets an average of 24 inches of rain per year, which is about half what many US cities get in a year.

Actually, I sometimes write the weather forecast for RAF Wittering (about 10 miles west of Peterborough) when I'm working at the weekends (I would have written yesterday and today's forecasts, but the base isn't open this weekend) .

Not to many people know peterbrough or if they do they kind of stick their nose up.. At least in my experience. But it's a good area I think, big enough population and close enough to major cities etc.

That's neat about the RAF Wittering. I knew there were bases nearby but I haven't seen them. There's an American base somewhere near too. I can't wait until I have a job and more disposable income to go explore the country more.

Yeah, Lincolnshire's not the most interesting part of the country, but it's not too bad. I just feel a bit in the middle of nowhere up here (I'm from the southwest (Bristol) and I'm used to good transport links and lots to do).

Yeah, there are a few bases around. The US bases are Lakenheath (about 50 miles from Peterborough) and Mildenhall (about 60 miles).

We actually were going to go up to Lincolnshire today, but we had our registry wedding yesterday and stayed out a little to late to get up today. They had a lot of free things to do this weekend. I randomly stumbled across it on Facebook.

Congratulations on your wedding .

I'll admit, I don't spend enough time doing things in Lincoln .

Thanks! We already had a big symbolic ceremony so this just sealed the deal for visa paperwork. .

We were discussing that today how most people often times don't take advantage of what their town has to offer. I sure didn't in America.
