Bring It On

OK, so where's the torrential rain we've been threatened with? Where's that system- like a gauzy ammonite, like a spiral galaxy of bad intent- they told us was spinning across the Atlantic towards us? Where's it up to? When will it hit? This drizzle doesn't do it for me. I want stair rods. I want thunder and lightening, hail and pace, I want it to fall with the force of a fire hose. 

And mainly I want it to do it now and get it over with, presto, within the next 24 hours, because we'll be driving down to Norfolk tomorrow.

Well here it rained and it rained and it rained. On Friday Brith (the dog I walk) and I got soaked, even though we tried to shelter under a tree during the part where the drops were so large and numerous that they almost ran together into a continuous sheet. Today it just carried on raining until about 3.30pm, at which point the sky brightened slightly and the rain stopped. Perhaps it just passed a little further south than the forecast said?

It's been raining here all day, with intervals, but it's mostly been quite light rain.
