Late on weather forecast parade. I can't even use the excuse that yesterday I had been at the RAH watching Mahler's Symphony of a Thousand, which I had.
The truth is that it simply chucked it down early morning, brightened up later whilst I did some voluntary work in the fields, remained bright in the afternoon whilst we both swept up leaves, and became cold and damp all evening. So the forecast of a manky old day was correct.
