Bloody English Weather!

Take a look at the photo below - 9:30AM, when my Dad and I were considering going racing in his boat. Since it was gray and rather damp (drizzle turning to rain with each passing minute of our indecision), we decided not to. Why would you? You're just going to be stuck out in the rain, racing a bunch of other damp sailors to the next buoy, wishing you were at home with a hot cup of tea in your hand.

So, we decided against sailing, and took off for the library. Pulling into the library (which has not changed since I was 5 yrs old), Dad made the comment "Watch, as soon as the start time gets here (race start was 11:50AM), the rain will stop and the sun will come out" Now take a look at the photo below.

This was taken this afternoon, the sun came out and it is now t-shirt weather - the weather gods are bastards!
