a week before the Flood



We went to the Black Isle for a break
It rained yes for 6 days it rained. Just to make it less boring it blew. I mean it blew, gale force at times.

The dogs picture reflect there opinion.
Just to make it more fun the windscreen wipers malfunctioned, not all the time only in a downpour! I managed to get one to work and we drove through it yesterday.
Today Jimee staerted his Gold Level Class , to pass this will keep us both busy.

Hey hey! I know what it is like when a wiper blade fails..Always during a hellish rain storm! I had to epoxy it back together because it had stripped out the teeth. Now it works fine and there is no rain... go figure.

Ah, John, just think: if it wasn't for horrid weather and malfunctioning machines, your life would be sooooo boring! :)

Ah you see my problem is facts. Every May there is an event called the Ultimate Challenge. This an event for mountain goats- like I was- to walk across the hills of Scotland ,west to east.. Records show the month of May to be the driest of the 12. This is why I picked May for our holiday. All I can say is I've seen drier weeks in the rainy season of west Africa. In the words of a failed politician; "It was not fit for purpose".
