What I am doing on my holidays

[adaeze]

Getting rained on, mostly.

I suppose this is inevitable when making a pilgrimage to the shrine of St Swithin, but it could have cleared up afterwards!  Anyway, so far we have been rained on in Old Sarum (nice castle!), in Salisbury, in Winchester (nice Round Table!), in Southampton, in Portchester (nice fort!), in Chichester, and pottering around the South Downs.

This sounds *enormously* British. I imagine you with an umbrella and a bowler hat. Well done.

There was impressively little mud on the car earlier. This might be because it had been washed off getting through the floods, or it might be because the mud was all settled on our trousers. Not sure.

Oh, we get all kinds of weather here. Sunshine, showers, hail, sleet, snow, heatwaves, gales, hurricanes, tornadoes, the Great Red Spot of Jupiter - they've all been recorded at one time or another.

This is a properly English holiday, though - I am glad you are having a good time despite the rain.
