Rain! Rain! Rain! - A British Summer's Day

Another very wet rainy day today. Sara returned from Brownie Camp this morning and finished off the Parish Magazine before she and Tom went into Southampton to spend the afternoon together watching Knights and Day at the cinema and going for a meal at Chiquita's afterwards. I drove into Andover to pay some bills and do some banking. I found a spot quite close to the town centre where I could park free for two hours. A useful find. This evening, with Tom and Sara out, Richard and I met in the Lion's Head for a couple of pints and to discuss arrangements for playing golf tomorrow. He has booked us a tee-off time at Paulton's of 7 a.m.! If the weather is as bad tomorrow as it is today, I cannot see much golf being played. Muddy water is streaming down past the pub onto the main road and straight into Mandie and Phil's front garden and garage. Work is currently being carried out near the village pond to install some kind of soakaway to prevent this in the future.
