The long-range forecast promised us rain here in the East of UK. Yesterday we had thunder rolling on and on to the west, but nary a drop of rain. However, later, sitting on The Bench in my front garden, I felt a drop of rain. After two minutes of a few more stingy drops, everything stopped and the sun came out. It's teasing us.
But later I went over to Lenwade (next village) to play bingo and they actually had puddles (!!) in the streets. Not fair!
