Final countdown

By Kirsty On May 1, 2013

Finally I am on maternity leave and the sun is shining. Definitely much better idea to have a baby in May rather than December (sorry Ethan!).

With a fortnight to go, more or less, it won’t be long until the new arrival is here and Ethan is a big brother. Watch this space…

By Kirsty On January 10, 2013

I’ve started writing a weekly pregnancy blog for iVillage.co.uk. I’ll let you know when I’ve updated it but don’t worry, I will add more to this site too. And I do have more exciting news to reveal soon…

It’s going to be a busy year ahead…

By Kirsty On December 16, 2012

Some good news we’ve been bursting to share – we’re expecting a new arrival next year! Kirsty caught up with The Sunday Mail’s Lorna Hughes to reval more…

Welcome to the deep south

By Kirsty On June 25, 2012

Some of you may already have noticed me popping up on BBC South Today or heard my not-so-dulcet tones on Radio Solent, BBC Oxford and BBC Berkshire.

For the next 6 months I’ll be in charge of all things weather for central southern England. If only I could control the actual weather…

So keep watching [...]

Whatever the weather

By Kirsty On June 6, 2012

If there is one thing we can rely on when it comes to the weather, is that it tends not to behave when we really really want it to. We may have got much better at forecasting rain, but we can’t make it rain or even better make it stop.

I really felt for everyone [...]

Congratulations Ma’am!

By Kirsty On May 31, 2012

It’s the Queen’s Jubilee Weekend, but will the weather get a royal seal of approval or will your street party have soggy bunting?

Unfortunately, we aren’t looking at the hot, sunny and rather too humid weather of last weekend. The weather changed midweek, with some of us getting caught in heavy thunderstorms. The good news [...]

Summer at last!

By Kirsty On May 25, 2012

After a wet and quite frankly miserable spring, our weather has gone all summery and with June just around the corner, could summer really be here at last? While yesterday felt quite oppresive and humid, today’s brisk easterly wind has freshened things up nicely and I can’t wait to get the barbecue out!

While the weekend [...]

Clever Weather

By Kirsty On April 25, 2012

This week I’m attempting to answer the question on everyone’s lips – why are we having such terrible weather and is our climate really changing? Thanks to @gaffa10 for suggesting it (albeit in stronger descriptive terms!).

So, first things first – why is our weather so bad this April? We’re on track for the coldest [...]

Even the ducks are fed up

By Kirsty On April 23, 2012

With another wet week ahead, I think even the ducks are fed up. In an interesting twist, the south of the country will actually be wetter than the north – cue lots of phone calls from my mother in Scotland asking me what the weather is like just so she can boast it’s better where she is. [...]

Run – it’s the weekend

By Kirsty On April 20, 2012

It would seem the weather gods have heard about the hosepipe bans and are taking the proverbial. Every time I’ve ventured out for a walk this week I seem to have got caught in a torrential downpour with hail and thunder making guest appearances. So is the weekend going to be any better?

In short, [...]
