	Yesterday, I looked at the forecast for Winchester for today. It said sunny, until 4pm - THEN heavy rain (amber warning). It wasn't :-\| We have had rain and wind since 9am, then torrential rain and strong winds since about 11am. It stopped about 4pm, but looks set to return. Apparently, it's going to be very sunny here, tomorrow.

Been out for a muddy paddle trying to sweep some of the flood onto the lawn, not much I can do about the front path because it slopes in too many ways.
