The rain that is, this time with a vengeance not just the wet stuff fell yesterday, but a real storm, thunder, lightening and more "dancing raindrops" than you see in a month of Sundays (probably not at the moment more like 1 Sunday!) It was so bad that it affected the power supply with no less than 3 interruptions. It dried up after a while and the sun came back out and then the power went off completely for 2 hours. Hence no blog. Last night the storm reappeared, but luckily Western Power managed to maintain the supply so I guess their little bit of string and fuse wire held up. No doubt they will send a man out to repair it properly "direkly" Bless 'em!
I think the microwave must have come out in sympathy because it flatly refused to work - yes the power was on, I am daft but not that daft! Amazingly however it repaired itself overnight and is now fully functioning again. Oh such domestic bliss, in a wildly exciting life.
Actually is been very quite here this week, the mass influx for the summer emmetts hasn't materialised as yet , perhaps the weather has put them off, cant say I would relish the prospect of a week in a soggy tent on the cliff top with all this precipitation around.
Highlight of today will be to go into town and post a letter, can I stand much more excitment??!!

Warm here with the sun making regular appearances. Not as warm as the weekend - it was particularly stifling on Sunday. Apparently, the wet stuff is on the way. Other than that, it sounds just as exciting here as it does there. The highlight of my day will probably be a trip to Sainsburys. At least everything is back in working order (apart from me, of course).
Ha! You appear to have sent your rain upcountry big style.
Hope the letter posting went well (!)
