It's been pretty grim here today.
Too wet for light clothes, too warm for waxed jacket.

But all the rain is going South which I regard as only right and proper.

Damn you Northerners
Sending all of your rain down to us in the South!

Let me guess.
You don't have a garden.

A bit of precipitation upon my small quarter of domesticity has been quite welcome even though it buggered up my walking activities good and proper.

EDIT - It's still raining here. I know that because a soaking wet cat has just run in through the catflap, jumped on my knee and vigourously shaken herself. Thanks, soaking wet cat.

I do have a garden
It's not big, and it's got a ginormous shed in it.

That could be bad news.
It might grow even bigger in the rain.

I spent twelve grim months living in Penge, so you can perhaps see where my deep rooted antipathy to all things Southern was formed.

I learned...
That you can take a boy out of the North, but you can't take the North out of a boy.

Doesn't always stand true - my brother has lived in South London (currently Clapham) since graduating and loves it - but the day we packed the van and headed back up the A1 is still one of the happiest of my life.

Anyway - bedtime for me.
