Random showers

Dear BBC weatherman, there is nothing 'random' about today's rain. The word you are searching for is "relentless" - it's a little further down the page in the dictionary.

It wasn't quite so relentless yesterday but confined its downpours to the times I was in the opticians and the hearing aid place. My hearing aid was due for its 6 monthly maintenance checkup - I got some nice freebies for keeping the appointment. I also ordered some new sunglasses that are large enough to give complete protection for the eyes.

What? You knew I was an optimist didn't you? There will be more sun to come, probably in early autumn when we return to the boat.
