Not a good day to hang the washing out.....

....as we discovered. While we were out shopping we saw no rain at all, but when we got back home it had obviously rained a lot here and the washing was wetter than when it was put out. Managed to get it in before the next heavy downpour.

The amusing thing is that our shopping trip was to order a new tumble dryer (to replace our old, sick machine).

The parasol is still out on the patio. It is no longer keeping the sun off the table - instead the rain is bouncing off it (which you can see more clearly if you hit L on the keyboard to view the picture large).
