I was sat at home this morning trying to decide if I should go to work on the bike or not, sky looked a bit black. Luckily I was a bit later than usual getting ready and it had started to rain before I left so I took the car. Good job because it has hardly dropped below heavy rain since then and got to really heavy at times. One customer near Talke Pits has lost power this morning Trev and still out, you okay where you are?

Been pouring down again while I've been trudging round the streets of Basingstoke, Hampshire, delivering the Mail this morning. I was absolutely drenched. I don't mind getting wet once in a while, but every bloomin' day for the whole Summer's starting to get on me nerves now. I get back to the sorting office & have to hang all my delivery bags, (I have 7 bags of Mail on my delivery), up to dry overnight. Then they get soaked again the next day.
My truck's at Loony's workshop in B/stoke so I work on it after work most days, but when I'm cold & wet it's the last thing I want to do, so headed straight home again today.
Just arrived home in Guildford, Surrey & now the sun's come out!
