- Hi Everybody The weather makers seem to have stuffed things up for this Sunday. Instead of the situation that has prevailed for the past two months where the weather has been blissful during the week, and rats on the Sunday, we seem to have the reversal. Wild wet and windy weather for the past few days and it is going to be fine and sunny for weekend.
