Woke up this morning to a heavy mist and light drizzle. By 1100 torrential rain and this continued until around 1800 to be replaced by, yes you've guessed it, a heavy mist and a light drizzle.

I was right! The rain followed us to Harrogate and now that we are back in Dunblane it's here too! I hate this climate!

Yesterday Lucy was at a barbecue birthday party. The rain was torrential. Last week (also Wednesday) we were supposed to go boating on the river at Knaresborough, next to the "Worlds" End pub (there must, surely, be a reason that their very expensive signs have no apostrophe ::). No one could be that stupid?!!! ???), but it was raining so we ate our picnics in the common room of Lincoln House, Harrogate Ladies' College where we were staying.

Sunny intervals here today, but there's a cold north wind that makes sitting outside rather less than comfortable! :(
