Sogginess has already hit Shropshire gives me an opportunity to test my new rain jacket I suppose
Later is meant to be a walk to a different pub, I suspect sogginess may impact that0 -
Morning, foggy start if it lifts I will be out for an early ride, Market Rasen races later
Have a good day0 -
Sogginess has appeared here about 4 hours earlier than forecast last night.
Was planning a big ride this morning before it arrived but I think I'll give that a miss as I'm suffering from eating too much Christmas dinner yesterday.
I think we might loiter around at the start of the boxing day time trial and if there's a break in the weather go for it, otherwise watch/take photos.0 -
Snot bugs, dontcha just lurve 'em? Awake at 5am with throat on fire. Peeing it down again. This will be a long and not very enjoyable day. Pinno's quiz it is then.0

Thought I was being cunning going out for a quick spin while it was just a bit damp but the heavens opened almost as soon as I left home.
Did some laps up and down the road and decided no more when the standing water on the way out of the roundabout was up to the centre line and I couldn't feel my fingers/toes any more.
As usual, it's just been a bit of light drizzle since getting back.
Police turned up part way through to set up a random post Christmas drink/drug drive checkpoint.
I didn't get stopped - I guess they thought if someone can ride a bike at that speed in that much water with a cross wind he's not drunk just insane.

Perfect summer day, long lunch at friend's place just up the road. Walk on empty beach in late afternoon sunshine.
All somewhat spoilt by a Really Bad Neck Day.

Woke up at 10am Spent a fair bit of time waiting for a gap in the rain to take the hounds out, which we've just done. Only a short walk though, as juniors stitches are still healing.
The last 2 months must have set some sort record for the amount of bloody rain though?

Don’t think so, nowhere near enough anyway. Next couple days will be awful I think. Even here it’s forecast to be 38C on Monday.pinno said:
