Looks like we're in for some wet whether this week so remember to wear your waterproofs and mind those drain covers... Oh and one other thing, when it rains, people tend to forget how to drive, so watch out for motor vehicles too.

    Whether the weather be fine
    Or whether the weather be not
    Whether the weather be cold
    Or whether the weather be hot
    We'll weather the weather
    Whatever the weather
    Whether we like it or not.

    Its my fault I've just bought a new summer bike. I bought new overtrowsers it was dry for a month, I then bought waterproof socks and again it turned dry.

    If I had a baby elephant, who would take it for walks?

    Wet weather is probably preferable to a wet wether.

People don't dress special to ride their bike any more than we dress special to drive our car...

    Is it me or do cagers get more uptight when it rains ? You would think they be happy sitting in the warm and dry but conversely bad weather seems to make em more aggressive
    Too much of anything is too much for me

    Don't know about more aggressive, but there does seem to be more of them in bad weather. Makes me wonder what all the bad weather car commuters do when the weather's fine - walk, bike, motorbike, what?
    Even if the voices aren't real, they have some very good ideas.
