Our local dribble is now a proper river and it's running totally clear.
It got me thinking that there must be at least one person who loves all this water.
Canoeists I'm looking at you.
You need water to brew beer.
Therefore, rain = good.

You need warm dry weather to drink beer.

Yup, rivers up put the bike away and get the boats out!
Are there any sports that are better in the rain? In a sort of 'oh it's raining, let's go and play/do....'
Nothing springs to mind?
When the amount of rain we are getting starts to piss off farmers, then you know it's getting a bit much.
Yebbut think of all the rich organic material and sediment that's being spread over their fields by the floods.
Loving that pic Jambo
Haven't been in a kayak for a few years now still got a couple hidden away, tempted to get out there again!
Miss the welsh river trips....
farmers are just programmed to moan, too much rain, not enough rain, we need larger government subsidies or FGS we will have to work
;o)
Good for the fish.

In my experience the default state of a farmer is pissed off, no matter what the weather is! Too wet to drill, to dry to drill, to windy to spray, not enough wind to dry the soil, too dry for the crops to grow, not enough sun for the crops to grow, too overcast to harvest, too damp to harvest... et cetera
EDIT- soobalias beat me to it!

Sorry what?
Indeed! Not many things are finer than a fireside pint!
Hows the brewing going Capt ??
Got a nicely hopped session bitter lined up for bottling at the weekend! 😀
Not a lot of love for the farming community.
I blame the rain...
I want to know who is to blame for all this rain!!!11one
Oh yeah, it's the gayers isn't it.

Eh? You need hot dry weather to appreciate a cold lager (for example on a Spanish beach), but cold wet weather is ideal for something with a bit more body and taste.
