Absolutely bouncing it down outside at the moment. Just completed the Dad's taxi routine, felt a right noggin dashing out to the car in a tee shirt and pair of shorts. Started to sound a bit like my dad when I asked the kids why they were going out on a night like this. Saw lots of likeminded short wearing people who had been caught out in it. It had been a beautiful sunny day up to around 9 ish. There's a bit of thundering and lightning going on as well. On my way home I passed a couple of lads out on road bikes (not Tribans!) Couldn't help but feel sorry for them as they had obviously been caught out with the downpour too. Good to see they were both helmeted and well lit up. (Safety first folks!)
Are you having it a bit wet where you are?

Last night, the thunder was earth shattering. I know it's just thunder but you could honestly feel it deep in you. Lol that sounded a bit mythical but it is a pretty awesome display of nature (or God) whichever you believe in. Either way, I was kind of hoping for some more because hands down, better than any 7.1 system you've got attached to your telly I'm just hoping the good weather lasts well into the end of 'summer' so I can clock up some miles.

Too many crazy drivers on the road on a Sunday!

Just back from Scotland. Driving from Dumfries; just before Annan-- a right monsoon (BBC now reporting flooding in Annan).Animals lined up in two's behind a hoary old bloke with a beard etc
3 miles down the road... dry .... and 3 road bikes heading merrily into the storm, enjoying themselves and totally unaware!
They didn't have lifejackets either.
