Moving to England in the early 60s, from Malta, it seemed that it then rained virtually every day - but, then I noticed that it
never rained on my birthday and that phenomenon has persisted annually ever since, even with a few near misses.
Today's forecast for my locality promised intermittent showers, but, being privy to the more specialist weather data, as I am, I took the opportunity to take the bike up into the hills, to fill in some gaps between routes that have been traversed in the past. It was reasonably successful, but some of it will have to be finished off on foot - but, I have identified viable parking spots for those missions.
Anyway, for an intermittently wet day, it was surprisingly dry, to those not 'in the know'.
Back at base now and surrounded by a ring of rather active thunderstorms, but still not a drop here.
