When is it going to stop... Raining

[ExBrit]

Bit warm, next couple of days. Still, at least it's less than 100F. Was going to ride Friday but I reckon it'll wait 'til the evening. Had some rain a couple of months back but I reckon it'll be November before we see any more. Time to get the air-conditioning sorted out.

I just noticed the UV index here goes up to 11. Says it all, really.

I wore a linen suit yesterday, wishing I'd worn a heavy tweed one, as well as a scarf and gloves, as the southerly wind was unusually freezing! Not only freezing, but strong as well.

Just wondering, does anybody wear tweed apparel over there? 🤔 🧐

Funny you said that. I just packed my tweed sports jacket away for the summer. Linen for the next few months

I'll be visiting the UK in August. Should I bring thermal underwear and wellies?

It's a big place, in weather terms. RIght now Somerset is 5' warmer than Edinburgh, and here's the rain radar:

As I post it is absolutely pissing it down again!!! 🧐 The only advantage of this crap weather is it keeps the pissed up, coked up Friday night knobheads in their homes and not out on the streets, acting like bloody savages!🧐 I'm on the side of the Spanish locals, regarding the 'Brits' behaviour! I want to see more Spanish police cracking skulls, not less!!🧐

Rant over!!🧐

I was listening to Darlene Love earlier on, a very appropriate line in this song

My it's a long way, my it's a long way
A long way, a long way, a long way
My it's a long way (a long way) to be happy now
I just don't know if I can take it
Oh, yeah, it's a long way (a long way) to be happy now
I wonder if I'm gonna make it
Nothing I do seems like any fun to me
You just don't know what losing him has done to me
It's the middle of June (but it feels like December)
So little I look forward to and so much I remember

Popped to see the Women's Tour of Britain earlier. Took the CX bike. Everywhere is absolutely filthy - trails are muddy and wet and its 'flaming' June ! I looked like I'd been on a mid winter ride.
