    RAIN. Not rain or even Rain with a capital R but full on RAIN. I was under orders to get the washing in if it started but me and the washing got soaked in seconds. A whole day's worth of rain in 10 minutes. :#

    If that had been me, I'd have put it in the happy thread. Wet washing or not!
    In London. Keen but lazy.

    There's something about peeling off soaking wet and freezing cold pants that puts a dampener on my happy spirit :|

    If it makes you feel better this spell check add-on told me I needed to correct that to knickers :|

    Depends whether you were talking trousers or undies.

    Sorry to harp on but I couldn't resist a peak at the BBC local weather forecast this evening. At 6.50pm it was forecasting a 95% chance of rain 7-8pm and 85% 8-9pm. Sod it, I thought, doesn't look like I'll get that wet so I went for a run at 7pm. Apart from the screaming lungs and aching bones, it was a perfectly pleasant summer evening's trot - lots of blue sky, wispy cloud and folk out and about enjoying the last of the daylight. Must have been hammering down at the other end of the valley I suppose  :o

    Our third breakage happened this morning - a spring in the sitting room door handle broke. I can rest easy now there's been the three mishaps - I hope!
