Sunny start from 5:30 in the morning. It started with virtually clear skies apart from a whisps of clouds in the early morning but as the day went on the clouds became more cloudy. The sky now has patchy and there is plenty of sunshine. The temperature now is 24°C and the wind speeds are 7 mph NW. The UV index is high and a 6 level. The pollen count is high which explains my running eyes and constant sneezing from early this morning.

Nara Japan 4 :00 pm Another warm day , had some rain early last night but it didn't last long 36 c .

Back on my American key board and my puter (got a new hard drive) which means I can use (') again sorry that is three keys I can't find on a Japanese key board

Well it rained this after noon. Not the sort of rain that you would call rain, but it was wet and it bought up puffs of dust on the work area I was at as I slowly build this enormous stonewall/rockwall that I've been building on and off for a client over the last four months.

They even predict that tomorrow might well bring 10-20 MM of rain!

It's cold here...brrr...I don't know how you people live with the cold all the time...yuck, I hate it.

16c - 8c is the forecast for today. That's freezing!!!!
I'm wearing track pants over my shorts, that's how cold it is.

Oooer that does sound a bit cold Keith you'd better work a bit harder to keep warm ,don't want you getting frost bite
