Sodding typical. I take a day off and now here I am, at home, with the lights on, in the middle of the day because it’s so dark I can hardly see.
Summer. Remember that?
Back to the commuting front on Monday. I’d say have a great weekend, but I don’t think any of you are ducks, so I think it’s unlikely to happen

I heard someone call it biblical weather earlier on.
The thunder has been as loud as I’ve ever heard it.
It’s a day for sofa flying with a good book.

The headlines today said something like “2 months of rain” – that’s kinda heading to the 40 days and 40 nights thing – I hope someone’s building an Ark out there….

M5, A38 and A448 closed.
Friday was such a great day. Not.
Perhaps after all taking the day off was a good idea…
I just heard that summer’s on its way. It should be here in 2008…
The bakery round the corner flooded. As did, ironically, the dry cleaners.
Ian – he he! Apparently it’s an el nino year, that’s the problem.
