My boss has a bunged up ear which he cannot sort out. As all the pharmacist remedies involve urea in one form or another, I suggested getting his wife to p*ss on his head.

He didn't think this was funny.

So you're doing it instead? Surely you should p1ss in his ear. If that's the case, why are you the one getting soaked. Or have I missed something?

I wonder if this is because she craped in his ear the other time and caused this blockage?

Fantastic! A coprophilia thread on Commuting Chat! Can we go any lower?

mudcow007

there is always the girls in lycra thread over on "Cake Stop"

how low can you go....how low can you......

Kieran_Burns

I was talking about how it's going to utterly tip it down on the way home tonight. I didn't start the golden shower bit - merely added an anecdote about my deaf boss :P

awesome website showing latest rain satelite so you can see where the rain is going to hit within the next hour or so...

(so central london should be clear by 5...perfect!)

+1 I use this anytime there's a cloud in the sky - really useful for finding gaps in the water!

Kieran_Burns

Gawd - it's REALLY accurate for here.

Watching the pulse of heavy rain on the site right as it hit here and it's gone past - leaving a crumpled but dry sky behind.

and the wind appears to have shifted to the North.

Lots of rain here (Old Street London) in the last hour or two. Stopped for the moment.

I use this, which I think is originally from the dutch Metoffice:

Pretty similar, but covers a wider area, and it still has the google maps option as well as the cloud satellite pictures

was home by 5.30 (well just after) ...and no it didnt rain again (tough wood!)

Rain? Wimps! Yesterday we had a virtual monsoon of rainfall, followed immediately by hailstones the size of ball bearings. In fact, they were so solid I considered servicing my wheels with them!

Well - that's uncanny.

It got to 5:30 here and the skies opened - very briefly. Just enough time for me to go diving for my event jacket put it on, zip it up... and swear.

I went for a last minute ride to Southend on sunday. The weather looked OK when I was planning it, a few spits of rain when I was leaving and for the first hour or so then the heavens opened and the temperature nose-dived.
I decided a bit too late that I should turn back as I hadn't reached the point of no return, so I got totally soaked when only wearing lycra shorts and SS lycra jersey. I was cold, but as long as I kept the levels of awesome high, I was warm enough.

Then I got a visit from the fairy.

I stopped at a bus shelter to change the innertube (getting very strange and pitying looks from the soon-to-be bus passengers. I got very cold, very quickly and began shivering.
Once back on the bike I was colder then I have ever been on a bike. My teeth were chattering so much I thought I may chip them (exageration).
One hour of giving it the beans on the way home didn't warm me up much so I was delighted to jump in a nice warm bath.

Normally I love riding in the rain, but sunday was a step too far!

Got soaked for 8 miles on the way into work and about the same on the way home tonight, still great fun though and even got involved in a spot of SCR on the way in.

"A lightweight packable shell, ideal for stuffing in your pocket in case of rain on those showery days. The Squadra Long jacket will keep the worst of the rain and wind off when needed, while still being small enough to pack into your back pocket or saddle bag. An essential item for every ride."

That wouldn't have worked. I would have needed something more like this.

I've been playing rain russian roulette all week... spitting rain on the way home last night (I think I was effectively playing SCR with a cloud), a load of road spray this morning - c'mon, it's june !!

dodgerdog

After two days of getting soaked getting in to work, I was pleased today to manage it without spring/autumn visting. 8)

That said I would like to know who has stolen the pleasent gentle breeze I should be experiencing each evening and replaced it with 15 - 20mph headwinds each night! :? GRRRRRRR!!!! :twisted:

hambones

It's been almost 3 long months since I experienced any rain on a ride.....
