Well there are a few - although they're a minor irritation - not like the evil Scottish ones.
The rain actually stopped around 1 pm today and a big yellow thing appeared in the sky

. Forecast: more rain tomorrow (and all the following days)
Still, I managed to dry out all four wet & smelly dog towels, the house and the back of the car

Desperately trying not to overfeed Rosie (the Shetland pony) - I've been trying to move her 'patch' of grass slow enough that she doesn't get too much to eat, but fast enough to stop the ground poaching - Not very successfully
