    Ever?! It doesn’t bloody feel like it! I’m getting really really ****ing bored with this now!

    April showers? Pah! Since when did showers last a solid 24 hours! Every bloody day! Not happy! 😥

    Yeah, don’t worry. Probably in November when it’ll turn to sleety snow for a bit.

    Never mind, it could be worse: I have a holiday booked in North Wales next week. I almost wish I did canoeing instead of mountain-biking. 🙁

    Yes it will, but probably not in time for the weekend from what I’ve heard.

    Hope I can find a cab home from the station tomorrow night, don’t fancy walking 7 miles home in today’s type of weather…

    The bus stop pole outside our house has no cap on it. It’s about 2.5 metres tall, 10cm in diameter, and as of today it is completely full to the top with rainwater. 😯

    (I’m not really sure how it’s happened as although it’s wet, obviously we’ve not had 2.5m of rain in the past few days. Odd.)

    Most of it is full of concrete / crap / stuff?

    The rain doesn’t bother me. The wobbly paving slaps from Piccadilly station to Piccadilly gardens (Manchester) that squirt water up my trouser legs when I stand on one do bother me though. Never a good way to start the day 🙁

    Rain? Sorry, hardly seen any here for a few weeks. Nice dry trails in the west of Scotland 🙂

    Doesn’t happen often, so we have to be smug when we get the chance!!

    It is getting pretty tiresome now and I live in Manchester so you’d think I’d be used to it.

    Don’t think it’s going to be much better over the weekend 🙁

    Getting really boring now. The novelty has worn off.
    The missus is sick of all the mud I’m dragging into the house and bed.

    A bit dry in the Lakes at the moment. I’d a couple of hours rain in Skye last week – trapped me in the pub one evening – grim.

    If it’s any consolation it’s a worldwide thing, it’s pissing down in Madrid and forecast to keep doing so all weekend, too.

    Nice sunny morning in Edinburgh although we have had a bit of rain. its what you get for living in Manchester (area) the rainiest part of the Uk – other areas have more rain but that bit has the most rainy days.

    It’s depressing, is what it is, though I’m off the bike due to a bad knee at the minute so don’t mind to much.

    I seem to remember it chucked it down this time last year, then May/June were amazing.

    I seem to remember it chucked it down this time last year, then there was a reasonable morning in May/and a slightly less overcast afternoon in June were amazing.

    The Manchester version 🙁

    There’s more on the way for the weekend, and into next week.

    It was calling a drought summit, the modern raindance, that did it.

    Christ I hope so!
    I’ve got a week long sailing event in Wales in 4 weeks time and I need it to be fairly light winds so I’m hoping all this shit will have blown over by then.
    I’ve also bought some new [warm] sailing gear as I got chilly training a couple of weeks ago – my theory is that if I buy lots of warm gear it’s going to be baking hot!

    Strangely I don’t see it as a problem as it isn’t particularly cold.
    Go out, ride, get wet, job’s a good ‘un.

    I’ve just got an email from Wiggle titled

    beat the rain! GREAT SAVINGS on wet weather essentials!

    Not daft are they? And obviously not expecting it to stop any time soon 😥

    I’m not saying it’s raining a lot, but the guy down the road from me is building an ark.

    He’s made it several levels tall and now he seems to be filling it full of freshwater fish…!

    I think it might be a multi-storey carp ark.

    My dogs are trying to do their bit by soaking up muck and the filth from the woods and depositing it on my kitchen floor…

    I don’t think they’ll care whether or not it stops soon, so long as you’ve bought your wet weather essentials by then.
