Not Moaning today

Well what a night ! Was woken twice by rain thundering down, indeed it was that heavy I started to wonder about the drains, not that they would affect me living on a hill, but I knew of shops and working men's clubs near me which are all below sea level and often get flooded in such weather..........Son number 1 called in this morning after a week nursing flu like symptoms.......He took the dogs to the park opposite, only for the heavens to open again with a veritable deluge.....or if you prefer precipitating/peeing it down.......I had the door open with three towels readily to hand, as I saw him making his way back. He didn't so much walk in as float in, squelching across the room with 2 pooches shaking water all over the place.........They were drenched, he had to change his shirt, 'thank goodness I had one handy'...but jeans, coat and socks/shoes I could not provide...Then he had to wait for a break in the rain to run to his van to get home and into something warm and dry................of course I found this all highly amusing.............but did manage to keep a straightish face while he was here
