Dreich ...

Only one word for it, really. Today was unutterably dreich - dull, gloomy, increasingly wet and windy - and by six o'clock this evening the newly-established summer time meant I was still able to see how miserable it was outside. Here I am barely able to see the drowned back garden through the rainy kitchen window, daylight or no daylight, but I can see all too clearly that the flowerbed is flooded and at least one pot plant is lying on its side.

Tomorrow is another day ...
