Apart from mondays brief rain there has been nothing real since the end of
March. I've lost an apple tree and I think its partly down to drought (and
I think it was got by fire blight), I dug it up and the soil was dry as
far as I could dig.

Sarah is right - she sees it as I do - the ground is bone dry and yet Feb
early March there was floods everywere. That WAS the last appreciable rain
we have had here, there is no doubt. All that rain in the channel and south
coast today moving North allegedly were's gone? it certainly hasnt passed
London.
