Rain Rain go away!

Phew we went to bed last night hoping that today would bring no rain, as Chloe my daughter was off for a fun day at Twin lakes for a school trip. Last night it just looked like the rain would not stop so we was quite surprised to wake up this morning to see nice blue skies with the sun shining.

So the day looks perfect for Chloe to have a fun day at Twin lakes without getting wet!

Talking about the rain brings me to my next thoughts I was reading the news on the web this morning and found a news article about a chap who died yesterday as his leg was trapped in a drain whilst clearing it out.

It's shocking to hear news like this, but leaves me to think surely there was something else the emergency services could have done to get him out, perhaps if they had watched Casualty at the weekend.

Let's hope the UK has had its fair share of rain and that the blue skies and sunshine comes back soon.

For all of you wondering Chloe had a great day at Twin lakes with no rain in sight.

Apparently unblocking it to prevent a flood... Crazy dude can't see how unblocking it would have prevented it.
