Stormy Weather

[Serial_Apologist]

Rather overcast today. Had thye usual rain earlier. the water authorities would like a steady rain all summer¬ How dare they say that!

Some government-employed geek must've worked out the equation, differentiating, nationwide, the amount of water table absorption obtainable from summer of steady rain, from that from the existing number of leakages ending up in the Atlantic, actual, predicted and guesstimated.

I am very happy today! i have fouund oput that Black Dyke Band are European Champions!! Had to wait till 10pm for the results! This yearit was held in Rotterdam. It's the first time since 2005 when this great band achieved this title! In that year they achieved Tehe Grand Slam in brass band contesting terms!

stormy squalls and bl**dy cold last night in the middle kingdom ..... one venture out yesterday and the heavens opened but met the retired deputy head of VIth form college when it was a blessing to the kingdom in the 80s under the canopy outside the butchers .... and we had a great chat ... so stuff the weather it is people who make the climate!

Between us we seem to have killed 'Stormy Weather' dead- S-A - except that it's very stormy today, thought we were to have one of those funnel things, as in the Wizard of Oz. A twister!
