Working at Essex Record Office which is on a narrow spit of land between a river and canal, we wonder when not if we will become HMS ERO.

Quite a lot of rain in the last weeks, but no flooding like last February, when we had to put out sandbags at front entrance.

Still unseasonably warm in mid Essex too.

My Rheumatoid Arthritis is complaining a lot. Joints don't like damp.
