I am now very bored with this. Surely there can't be much more left up there?

    Passed a bloke this morning making a great big ship out of wood. His wife was trying to herd cats into it.

    Good luck, losers!

    Was planning a ride last Saturday, but it was sunny; looked out of the window and thought 'I'm not going out in that!'

    Dry weekend on the whole, and I didn't get out to ride due to various familiy committments :(

    Monday morning commute and its bucketing down... but only for as long as it takes to get to work :( , then the next 3 days at least are dry :) (allegedly)

    [edit]... it stopped raining almost as soon as I went out this morning... and hasn't rained since. Came home in glorious sunshine and 19/20degC.. turned out luvverly... and doesn't look too bad for Tuesday/Wednesday and might just get away with it on Thursday.... Friday less so :(
