Well..
The weather Numpties almost got it right.
We watched the lovely, gentle rain falling. Refreshing the plantlife and filling cisterns.
.
Alas it all happened  on the other side of the valley. One.
 absolute wimp even lit his woodburner.
We collected about 30 litres of gritty , 5hitty roof water.
We're sitting in the  evening sunshine, counting our blessing.
That should be all the rain that we're due, until October. 
Mustn't  grumble.
