Will the weather gods just sod-right-off.

Early door when I wake up, its fair so on with the commuting gear, shirt rolled up and into bag. 5 mins before I set off the heavens open like a blinking waterfall!

Meanwhile its still a drought.

    i got hailstoned this morning

    it went from bright sunshine, to overcast to black - impending doom black to lobbing hailstones at me like i was being shot with a peashooter

    At least you're not freezing to death.

    2 degrees here this morning and likely to be 5 degrees on the way home :evil:

    I am wearing the same gear that I was in January :shock:

    Warmest March, wettest April, coldest May. WTF does June hold for us?

    Breaking news. The Daily Express predicts freezing weather until mid June. That means a heatwave is just round the corner :twisted:
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.

    it was freezing this morning, my legs still havent recovered and the winter gear will be coming out again.

    Cold and Damp and windy. The worst type of weather.

    Is it revenge for the nasty Royals killing off Diana & Dodi?

    Well on the commute in i got cold and wet.

    On the commute home, the following happened.

    1) I got hailed on.
    2) once the hail subsided; it rained for the next 10 miles.
    3) It was a bit windy.
    4) It was cold due to the above.
    5) The sun came out for the last 3 miles.

    The good thing was that i stopped before the rain/hail to put the rain cover on my back pack, but wished i had put the overshoes on before setting off as i ended up with cold and wet feet by the time i got home.

    Tomorrow brings the sun!
