Took the dog out this afternoon, and kept a very careful eye on the sky
towards the south-west. Thick, dark clouds, with several signs of heavy
rain pouring out them to the south of town. After an hour and a half,
returned home without getting wet. Turned on the radio to hear of
traffic chaos on the A45 4 miles away due to lane closures and flooding,
Queues all the way back to the M1 and beyond.

Got f*****g soaked when I took her out at 10 o'clock this evening.

Can't win them all, I suppose.
