Sunny start to the day here but we could get a little rain in the afternoon
Enjoy your day everyone
Clouded over here now and might get a bit of rain 
Met Office think there might be a mini heatwave next week 
@El Loro posted:Clouded over here now but so far no rain, The Met Office rainfall map shows that there was a deluge shortly after 4 pm just to the north of here, would have been around Tewksbury,
We had a sprinkling here around midday El...but tbh if you blinked you'd have probably missed it 
Disappointing weather for the opening ceremony of the Olympics in Paris yesterday ...
Good morning everyone
A sunny day here and no rain forecast. Met Office temperatures for Monday to Wednesday have highs of 28-29° but BBC's forecast are 27°, 27° & 26°. Heatwave threshold is 27° for my area so Met Office forecast a heatwave but BBC doesn't.
I hope everyone has a good day 
Slim, little of interest on the Talking Pictures tv channel during the coming week.
Tomorrow at 16.05 is "Summertime" (1955). It's been on television before but I don't think I've mentioned it to you. Bittersweet romantic comedy of an American spinster (Katharine Hepburn) going on holiday to Venice and meets a married man (Rosanno Brazzi), Although one of David Lean's less famous films, it was a major film in his career. Until then he had made British set films, the last being "Hobson's Choice". "Summertime" was his first film made abroad, his next film was "Bridge on the River Kwai". "Summertime" was reportedly Lean's favourite of his films.
@El Loro posted 21/7/24:Watched "And Then There Were None" last evening, a very good film with a touch of black comedy. Even though I hadn't seen it for many years I still remembered whodunnit.
Strangely enough Talking Pictures are showing "Ten Little Indians" (1965) tomorrow which is closer to a remake of that film rather then Agatha Christie's novel though set on a mountaintop mansion.
And Talking Pictures are showing yet another remake tomorrow, the 1974 one called "And Then There Were None" (Oliver Reed, Richard Attenborough)

Both clips audio only. Lyrics different but the music had very obvious similarities.

To the untrained ear one could easily think they are the same tune
