Life in Budapest has taken a turn for the worse - no sooner have we moved into a flat to enjoy the brighter sunshine of the summer have we been trumped by the weather.
Hungary has been subjected to some pretty merciless storms - torrential rain, 40 mph winds and day and days with no sunshine. It really does show how bad things are when the UK is 10-15 degrees warmer than Hungary in May. The river is very high at the moment so bets are off as to whether we will have repeats of last years floods.
Last weekend saw us dodging the heavier rain storms, wrapped up in our ski jackets - looking skyward to avoid the falling mortar from building facades and tree branches that have been ripped off in what is, as a general rule, a green city!
Even the long weekend this weekend looks to have succumb to the english Bank Holiday tradition of rain and cloud.
Hopefully it means that we will have a longer summer and in all honesty, the city skyline looks pretty impressive when backed up by a glowering sky - bring the more gothic nature of the city to life.
The best bit about it all is, Iceland is to blame apparently!
