Clearly a bit churlish to complain here in London, when others have had to contend with extensive flooding, but it is a bit relentless today.
― quixotic yet visceral (Bob Six), Sunday, 3 January 2016 14:10 (eight years ago) link
has been relentless for several days here in the s/w.lights on during so called daylight hours.cannot remember such an extended dark/miserable/grey/wet period.everyday i thank the lords of opportunity that my wife made us buy a house on a hill ..

First extended period both of us off work with the baby, wish we could've made more of it. He's happy with the swings though.

moving out in a week or two, but going on holiday tomorrow and we have rain leaking into the house, pouring from ceiling to floor down the walls, dripping from the kitchen ceiling, flooding the outside courtyard. I'm terrified I come home and find my stuff waterlogged.
― TARANTINO! (dog latin), Monday, 20 June 2016 10:32 (seven years ago) link
ugh. Is someone watching the place so they can at least move stuff if it gets worse?
― sktsh, Monday, 20 June 2016 11:00 (seven years ago) link
I'm going to move anything precious to another room. landlord is hopefully sending someone over to look at the house while we're away.

Ugh, I just walked a circuit from Holborn Nationwide to the little Waitrose and back home again, in a Barbour, and got home absolutely wringing wet.

classic reliving my youth. standing in the rain waiting for a bus going to a party in the miserable pissy rain. beer in plastic bags. first bus shoots past. bus a back street stopper. going to walk home for three hours later just to go the full proust.

rain is good, it tests our new gutters

We haven't all got gutters that need testing, mark. Or do we?

Oh right, I thought we were the only people getting this while everybody else got a heatwave.Well, keeps the country green I guess. & what would the alternative be?Galway wouldn't look as nice as a desert.
A couple of months back I looked out of the window to see some weird mist like thing happening outside which I couldn't see the reason for. Found out that a couple of weeks without rain had lead to gorse fires out in Connemara direction. Was far more noticeable in town apparently, I just got this weird mist/fog thing.So better not to have that repeating i guess.
― Stevolende, Tuesday, 27 June 2017 14:00 (six years ago) link
today manchester has been overcast, with occasional light spitting rain, and pleasantly cool. I could go for a bit of mist though
― ogmor, Tuesday, 27 June 2017 15:17 (six years ago) link
I love the rain and moderate temperatures. There was a wave of violent assaults here during the hot spell and there always is, because people go fucking mental in the heat. One of the violent assaults occurred on one of my dog-walking routes and the perp's description was a dead-ringer for me (well 90% of violent crime is probably done by old white baldy males) and he had his dog with him as well. I'm just just glad it was a Spaniel and not a Black Labrador, lest I end up like Peter Fonda in The Wrong Bald Bastard.

I think it is the hilly/mountainous terrain of places like The North and southern Eire that I like, as well as the rain. I was having this conversation with my bro coming back from London t'other week. Places that are flat as a pancake in the UK don't quite feel like home when you are a hillbilly.
