Lots of it in NW Bristol Pam, terrific thunderstorm
about 03.00hrs this morning with v. heavy rain.
Still have had no rain here. The next rain is forecast for the
weekend.
Even did the traditional rain dance with a garden hose yesterday
evening. It had no effect.
This calls for Plan B.
Organise a family garden picnic/ barbecue and spend hours preparing
special marinades, salads and desserts. Fire up barbie and set out all
the goodies in tempting manner. That might work.
That ALWAYS works

No, no. Just wash the car. No need to buy all that barbecue stuff!
That works too! A double whammy. Wash the car and plan a barby. Guarenteed
to hiss it down with rain. As it is doing now here. And I mean hissing
down. It seems to be all or nothing.
But it is very much cooler, and I like that.
