our fields were bone dry, fed up of carrying water to all the ponies, goats, hens etc.  Now we have the rain, and no sign of stopping.  Its getting muddy in the gateways too, and the hens are carrying mud in, so the eggs are covered in it too.

Just off to start the evening feeds, and its raining very hard now, so will be like a drowned rat by the time I am done!!

so its you that did the rain-dance?!
.... thanks for that!!!

It rained here too ....  well almost  ---  it looks as if this keeps up it might possibly dampen the washing on the line enough to make it easier to iron.  Rain would be nice  (as long as its not too much)

have had very heavy rain ALL day today and all night too . I have a water tub outside , it is about 4'x2' it doesn't have any drain pipe into it , just rain that falls . So far it has gone up about 4" since yesterday , maybe even more as I have taken a fair bit out .
 It rained on the 15th , St Swithins (Swithun) day , so is on course to keep up the old saying :

 St Swithun's day if thou dost rain
For forty days it will remain
St Swithun's day if thou be fair
For forty days 'twill rain nae mare

 as it has rained everyday since then , at some time during each day , only another 35 days of rain to go  !!!

Hi Russ.  Viewed your rainy video - and had the sound track from outside my own window 

[sheila]

I know I shouldn't laugh Rusty but I have just viewed your video and I have never laughed so much since maggie thatcher left downing street! you sound so fed up. We are not fed up of all the sun but we really could do with some rain. If it could rain during the night it would be good!

[Rosemary]

I must admit the video made me laugh too. It's been showery here. Dry at the moment so I've hung the washing out. The grass (and weeds) are growing brilliantly as it's so warm.

[RUSTYME]

lol.... no probs... the video I put on photobucket was the clean one ... the one I deleted was like a Derek and Clive video . it was only when I watched it back that I realized I had sworn every other word  !!!  My mouth is like a sewer , and I fight to keep it clean at times .... lol.... I was fed up with the rain though .... thoroughly p*ssed off with it !!
 Today I actually got out the door without getting soaked !!! so back to happy again . 


cheers

Russ

Ah, you could have sworn all you wanted, cos I have no speakers on my computer, so would not have heard a word   Its dry this morning. Just about to put some washing out .....but, large dark cloud looming overhead, so rain not far off I fear, and washing may be coming in again soon!!

[Hilarysmum]

It would actually be nice to have a drop of rain here now.  (Not that I am moaning about the weather I leave that to the OH)
