Default Awesome rain!

My gads, it's belting down. Just came out of nowhere, and there are rivers instead of roads.

Woken up in the night by what sounded like the local fire brigade hosing our bedroom window!!!!

Then a fantastic thunder and lightning show for about 1/2 hr
Wonderful!!!!

( or should that be as we'd agreed to go to the lottie early this morning - and now it will be like a mud wrestling pit!...could be fun!)

I just saw the Out-Laws... they live 3 miles away, and had no rain at all.
We're just getting a few thunderbangs here now, and another downpour. When the sun peeks through, it's roasting.

Did you have a line of washing out? I find that always works for me!!
