Having spent the entire day in the office, helping out our IT guy...(just don't ask why he wasn't able to fit in the pre-arranged visit midweek)... I locked up and stepped outside. I got wet double locking the door. I got drenched by a speeding car as I waited outside the office for the lights to change. In the two minutes it took me to reach the station and shelter for a taxi, I got saturated to the skin. Cars were swerving to avoid the torrents racing along the gutters, it was single lane where the storm drain couldn't cope and a geyser shot into the air. Hope the rest of you are warm and dry.

I didn't take a brolly and it was warm and sunny at lunch time. Off for supper now, and just another glass to warm me up.
