....drizzle as I set out this a.m. And then within 10 minutes.....it poured down! Could have felt really virtuous if it hadn't stopped after 1/2 hour....

Have a good day!

    Hmmm...cracking weather up here. It's too good to pass up the chance of getting cycling tan lines, so I'm cancelling today and going off out for a ride this afternoon. Yaaayyyyy :D

    No rain in Brizzle, yet. Hopefully I can get out later after dinner.

    Drizzle setting off but it got out nice in North Yorks. Tan lines and everything.
    BUT pestered all morning with green fly. Millions of 'em. Ouff.

    Got the mozzies/gnats divebombing me last night, including one who liked the warm wet environment of my eye socket. :x

    Cycled the 20 miles to work this morning at 630am and it was wonderful, sunny, warm and no wind. Same on the way back but a bit windier, had the added bonus of hunting down a roadie on a flash Bianchi and leaving him for dead on my 20yo gas tube special :lol:

    Stunning day over this way though there was a fair whack of haar at 8,watched it from a far (i sit about 10m from the nearest window) got home, still sunny, ate tea still sunny, headed out, got onto the main road, 30m visibility, out towards Tentsmuir, visibility down to 10 by Leuchars. Good run for me 1hr 7min for 28ish km. (my PB is 1hr 5min going the other way) and just to make it even better belting along the road back to the house there is a clear view over the tay to the carse of gowrie, Haar jsut above groudn level, and the setting sun belting through the tiny slit, only problem was, I now wish I had gone for a walk with a camera instead.

    Drizzle in Brizzle when I was on the way home this afternoon, just enough to cool you not wet you. Dry when I went out earlier tonight.

    Absolutely glorious day here in Glasgow. Hot and sunny right through. It just makes it all the more galling that I work in retail and was stuck in the shop all day (while the boss buggered off at 4pm to go to a BBQ, leaving us to man the fort).
