The rain it raineth on the just
And also on the unjust fella:But chiefly on the just, because
The unjust steal the just's umbrella.
Charles Baron Bowen 1835-1894
It sounds like you are having a deluge there, my dear...The weather is so weird here. In fact, it is weird, EVERYWHERE!!! Hoping iy has let up some, ny now, dear Pat....
I used to have this fantasy about living in England but someone (a Londoner) told me the weather would wear me down.
I just now had time to read your last post. So sad. I don't know how I would rise above it all if something like that happened to a family member. I would hope to find an untapped well of strength.
Randall: that's what they said when we moved in - in '85. This is a window and only happens when it is frightful weather with the wind in a certain direction. We chose not to change the old style windows so can't grumble.
Same here, a lot of rain and both windows in the sitting room are leaking. Counting the days till we're moving to our (hopefully? apparently?) non-leaky new house! And here's hoping for a proper, warm, dry summer!
Grand mother but still a girl at heart. Married to MTL(my true love)after a separation of 30 years. Had three careers: trained paediatric nurse, National photographic model and business woman. Now settled in SW and enjoying our five children and ten grandchildren and making the most of what time we have left.
In January 2013 I lost MTL.

Yes, I just popped outside for a few minutes and have come back inside utterly drenched.
And you've solved the picture-in-post conundrum!
Appalling isn't it? I'm quite fed up with it now.

Rashbre: it is relentless and made much worse with the wind which finds all our nooks and crannies.
Rog: I wish! The only part of my anatomy involved were my fingers. Crossed
Scarlet: Couldn't hear a word Columbo said for the wailing of the gas fire.
Naomi: I dread to think the damage it must have caused and travelling on the roads must have been horrendous.
Drought and global warming? Yeah, right!!
rain rain go away
come again another day! ;)
it's still chilly here - several days of rain and cold - but even with the sun, chilly! bahhumbug!
Meanwhile in what's usually a damp and grey Glasgow, we've been sitting out enjoying the sun. Strange times!
:¬(

Jenean: it seems to have stopped thank goodness. Out come the winter woollens again.
Macy: I'm happy for you:)
Anon: I really should learn more signs other than :).
Not rainething here, but what a lovely few moments of description.
Pat - I've just seen the morning news! All j oking aside, it looks terrible down there!
We too are experiencing rain. Lots of outside projects have to be placed on hold. I think my spouse likes that:)
Mage: happy you like it:)
Macy: my SOH has been absent since yesterday.
Grannyn Annie: spouses tend to welcome a spot of inactivity:)
Love the quote :)
Can't say I've noticed much more rain than usual for Scotland though

Sounds horrible. Time to resurface the roof.
Cheers.

Marjolein: fortunately I have tons of old towels for mopping up:)
I keep old newspapers to soak up the odd leak in the fairly new zinc roof. I was quite surprised to discover it can happen!
GG: flat roofs are the worst - like we have on the garage and sun room.
