Yup, we have sunshine, albeit very watery. I just ventured out onto the Deck in me slippers (big mistake) and took a walk around the "grounds". OK, OK, it's a 20 x 12 back yard, but I can dream. One of my gladioli has toppled under the strain of the rain, know just how she feels. I will snip her as low as I can and bring her in to stand majestically in a vase by the fireplace. Well, it's sad to end your days looking wet and pathetic with your head in the mud isn't it (just ask me Dad).

I may wake Dawg up and take him for a quick run around before the next front moves in. The forecast is, well, damp to say the least. Hope everyone is ok and not flooded. I have bought a boat and sandbags, I live eight miles away from the nearest river with a flood warning, but you can't be too careful.

I know there is more on the horizon because the hill to the back of my house has completely disappeared. Weather this is down to the low cloud or my eyesight I have yet to determine.

Right, I'm going to take off these soggy slippers and find me waders.

Have a good day all....................
