Take A Walk With Me Around Birmingham.
Happy Friday Friends. We are still enjoying the hot weather. Take care today as I have heard it is going to be the hottest day of the year.
But then the weatherman could have got it wrong as it was so hot yesterday. Every day, I think it is the hottest day as we have had as we have never had it this hot in the UK.
It has eventually started to rain again. Yesterday the 2 youngest children and I had a walk out to see Grandma and Grandad.
1 mile away from their house it started to rain. Not just any rain either.
Thunder, torrential rain and big hailstones. It was awful being caught up in it. I had to put my handbag over my head to stop the pain of the hailstones hitting my head and we all had to run, very fast.
When we got to my Mum and Dad’s we were soaked to the bone, squelching as we walked. As soon as we arrived, it turns out beautiful again. Talk about being in the wrong place at the wrong time!

Oh no! We’ve had torrential downpours off and on all week with little to no notice either; thankfully we haven’t had any hail though. Thank goodness for purses! LOL.

It has been very hot in my neck of the woods! Though I am at my parents this week and there is a 20 degree difference! Wow, I am glad you are all okay and made it through a hailing storm. That must have been a crazy experience! I have not been to Birmingham but it looks like a wonderful place to visit! Wishing you a marvelous weekend Claire!
