Lovely day again, temperatures climbing and should be high 20s by Friday.
Careful, Bill, Someone might suspect the slightest hint of smugness, creeping in ...?
Not me, or course.
Just as I got into the shower, the rain rattled down onto the bathroom Velux.. 5 minutes later, I was satisfied that the roof would be cleaned off enough.
I scuttled outside, in my birthday suit and connected up the cistern feed.
Immediately the rain stopped.
We left to go to the big town , under murky grey clouds, returning after lunch.
Not a drop had been collected.. Everything was as dry as an undertaker's cough..!
We have lasted for 9 months just collecting rainfall.
I have,reluctantly phoned Sr. Samuel to bring us 5000 litres up, by tractor, Friday.
It's certainly going to pour down very soon afterwards... Guaranteed!
