Wet Weekend..


So, it's Monday again (sigh).. We spent a rather soggy weekend running around doing odd jobs with a little socializing on the side. I went for a walk into town on Friday, around lunchtime, and it absolutely lashed down, I should have worn swimming trunks as the roads around here had turned into little rivers! Then on Saturday we decided to meet up with friends in the next door town so we walked to the train station and hopped one stop to the next conurbation up the line. Relaxed for a pleasant couple of hours chatting and supping beers in a local bar then had a curry in a restaurant next door, it was all good except when we'd finished at around 10pm and needed to walk back to the station it was lashing down again, you could say it literally put a dampener on the evening! Anyway, luckily, I did have the foresight to take a big brolly so we only got wet from the ankles down! On Sunday it was pretty much the same story, after a nice roast chicken dinner (Fathers day treat) we managed to slip out for an hour in between downpours for a walk in the (now thoroughly swampy) countryside, classic British Summertime weather I suppose..
