Spoke too soon - too knackered to do anything when I got home yesterday and it's slashing down this morning

The sun's (weakly) out here, but going for a paddle down the garden doesn't really appeal...

Not exactly. Just heavy clay soil, and it was hissing down most of the night! But Storm Doris was pretty much a non-event here, so it evens out.

It was very sunny and quite mild, almost warm and I managed to give the lawns their first cut of the season, a very pleasant afternoon in fact. Made all the finer by Town getting a well deserved win over Aston Villa, so I can go to bed a very happy and contented bunny.

I've just about had enough of "International Womens Day" being rammed down my throat every time I go near a radio, television or computer. When is International Mens Day ?!
