Big Rain

The rain arrived as promised. I came up from the shop at lunch time to find Sammy home looking like a drowned whatsname. He just had time to have a shower and scoff his lunch before heading out again. I lent him all my rain gear and my wellies, but he was in too much of a rush to do up the little snappers under his chin, so he put on the overhelpless look one does on these occasions and I did up his poppers. It must be many a long year since I've had to do up his buttons for him. It is still chucking it down out there and we have already had our average monthly rainfall for December on this one day. Let's hope tomorrow brings something better or I'm turning the woodwork in for boat building.
