Pacific Coast Weather Report

We'll be down to a chilly 28 today, after hitting 36 and 32 over the past two days.

Good to have a bit of summer, and my vines look like they've got a bumper crop of grapes this year.

After an early set-back you'll also be pleased to know I'm winning the battle with the mosquitos on my property...

Not bad temp for Cumbria as it's a bit nippy here in Nottingham,no mosquitoes but loads of those midge things when I'm down the Trent with Coco

Are you sure you can spell piglet. You say vines, i say veins, after all, im sure your bumper crop of grapes must be painful.

You a hobby grower Piglet, or is it a business? I hear the Pacific west coast fogs can sometimes be a nightmare.

When piglet sent you your present Griffy did it have American stamps on it or was it postmarked Wigton?

He ordered something from an institution in London.

When the mossies bite piglet, im sure the mossies die.

I did consider buying a vineyard, but decided against it as I don't know enough about the winemaking process. Maybe it's something I'll consider again in my twilight years.

Anyway, we don't really get much fog here (maybe a day or two in Autumn or early Spring) but we do get long, dry, warm summers and the benefit of living so close to the ocean regulates the temperature perfectly. The vines on my property (grown from twig) yield a bumper crop of fruit.

The mosquitos only die if you notice them, Psaw, they're utterly devious. Thank heavens for bug screens and air conditioning.
