Well it's arrived

[paddywak]

After odd jobbing in the garden all day waiting for the rain I just came in for a coffee and the skies have opened and dumped a days supply of rain in about 5 minutes the roads like a river, we've even got a bt of thunder and lightning.

[albaqwerty]

you should have come in earlier for the coffee :-)

[paddywak]

Actually alba Ijust timed it right. I'd just sat down when it kicked off, it's settled down now but it looks like its setting in for the evening

[albaqwerty]

When I try to start attacking the jungle I pray for rain to get me back in the house :-)

Only problem is, the ironing greets me. Just can't win !!

[murraymints]

pouring here in Edinburgh all day..after a week of sun it has come at a good time..the day after I finished planting up all my patio pots and baskets ...78 of them...and a few bedders in the garden itself..saves me about an hours work with watering cans !!!

[anneasquith]

we have had rain all day but now stopped. no thunder and lightning though, thankfully

[B00]

yeah, I just had time to leggit outside to bring my washing in before everything became a sodden mess.

[TheNovice]

been fine for most of the day in London, fine sunshine at present. Wife edging me towards the garden with some tools.....is there any hope of said rain saving me!!!!!

[albaqwerty]

B00, it's called a free rinse :-)

The seagulls use mine for target practice.

[TheNovice]

[albaqwerty]

Mr Alba says the rain chases the wind so you might be in luck Novice !!

[anneasquith]

oh, the suns out now :)

[Traci66]

We got about ten minutes earlier, I was going shopping with two of the grand kids, it started as we got into the car and stopped as we got out, it did mean plenty of puddles for them to jump into though in their new trainers. Oh oh, Nana's in trouble again.

[albaqwerty]

Traci, that's what puddles are for. They NEED to be jumped in, it's the rules.

[Maydup]

I can't remember the last time it didn't rain......;-(

[mojay]

I'm also in the W.Mids Tony and it's still chucking it down here :)

[Traci66]

Well at least their feet stayed dry alba, what with having new shoes on.

[paddywak]

Suprisingly its slowed to a drizzle and the sun is trying to break through.Typical weather is suppose can't make it's mind up what to do.
