We need rain!

Is it me (I live in the Isle Of Wight) or do we all need some good rain? There has not been any here at all in April, and my water butt ran out over three weeks ago. A nice hot Summer is good, but some decent rain would help - Anyone else had similar problems? I am now watering every day with the hosepipe

I live on South Coast of Ireland and we had no rain in April - well nothing to speak of, but since Ist of May it has rained for 5 days and gets heavier each day - went out to look at Veg today and everything has really shot up, you,ll get rain any day now, i think

Glorious day on South coast if Ireland yesterday, it rained early in the morning and again in the middle of the night, beautiful in between and a good sunny day again today - good day for gardening, but it wont hold.

Well there wasn't much in April, but we seem to have had quite a bit of it since.

If only the sun would come out with the rain!
