Oh, oh. We may need umbrellas

The Norwegians are saying 'near gales from southwest'. Guess which way we're going.
No change to plans as yet.

Bit of rain never hurt anyone, looking like sunny showers at worst.

Looks like I'll be letting the side down, SWMBO has got plans for me.

 

[Nick Saddlesore]

Met Office has cheered up, no excuses (apart from @GM).

I was hoping to be over my cough/cold but it doesn't look likely. So have fun tomorrow.

Sorry team. All the forecasters agree on heavy rain this morning, so I'm out. Have a good one.

Shoot them. Barely a drop all ride.
Thanks for the ride nick.
Was concerned at one point no one was going to show.
Roads quiet - so quiet that at hyde park corner I was able to cross the cyclecrossing on red. Perfectly safe. All peaceful until .I got to the arch when a jogger with a backpack started screaming at me for breaking the law " just because you're white".
Called me whiteman a few more times.
Unless my cheapo lidl glasses were playing tricks he was white as white himself.
All very odd.
