Thunderstorm right overhead here. Lights in the house keep flickering.

I will have to go out later to pick up mum's prescription, but will take the car. I have no intention of getting soaked.

The usual suspect

Turns out one had somehow got it's "base" point reset and was going all over the place. The other one is still a mystery to us and the manufacturers. They're sending a couple of replacement cables in the hope that is the source of the problem.

 

[fossyant]

Better go clean the bike and dry out 1 shoe - the mud and puddles have returned.

 

[Reynard]

The rain has gotten harder.

I think I'm going to be wanting an umbrella and galoshes later.

Glad it ain't my fault then. Aptly, once had a vertical borer that had somehow damaged a cable in one of the most inaccessible places. Blamed gremlins . . .

Good morning all..... well it isn't really, sorry I didn't say it earlier, busy watching you tube videos on the strimmer I was using today, its a 4 stroke Honda with "aeroplane" controls!!!!!!
It rained very heavily at 06:00 hrs, and on the local news a few manhole covers on main commute routes had blown clean off!! nothing today just warm and high cloud cover, rain due later

 

[Reynard]

Well, it's finally stopped raining here. Mum's prescription has been collected - it was pouring in Littleport, so cue the circus tent waterproof from my "fat" days.

I now have a and am listening to Aston Villa v Sheffield United

Oh, and the diesel generator has been removed. The pump is still there though.

Are we winning?

Are we winning?

Half an hour gone and it's still 0 - 0

It's on Radio 5 Live btw. We're away at Man City later. Not holding out much hope...

I'm not sure... One of the Norwich games, I think... Can't seem to find it on the BBC website schedule, so maybe not this weekend.

Anyways, homemade pizza tonight
