The summer of 2009 in East Suffolk has been warm, sunny and very dry, it is now some four months since we have had any apprecaible amount of rain, parts of the region is becoming almost like scrubland in places, Today Anglian Water announced the Alton Reservoir is at 68% Capacity..........I suppose soon we will be getting too much of it as Scotland and the NW has this year!
We are now into the first week of the Spring equinox and winter is returning. The winter of 2009/10 has been the coldest for 30 years I shall be pleased to see the back of it........!
