I never get wet when a storm is forecast. I normally wear shorts and my slippers.

Supposed to start chucking it down at 12 here.

I'm only 7 houses until finished for the week not sure if I'm going to make it but I ain't working tomorrow so hoping it holds off.

Storm season - what a joke - puff of wind and some rain drops

No wonder the younger generations are so pathetic

Yeah that’s fair enough, I find shorter days are easier on the body and mind though…

I find long days can caused more shoulder and neck fatigue for the next day.

Be interesting to see how you get on.

I agree they predicted 60-80 mph winds and torrential rain had 2 light showers and only a light wind 😂😂😂😂here

I find when I finish at 1 or 2 by the time I get home and sort van out etc then I can never be bothered to start something else so it was kind of finish early for the sake of it.

With an extra day off I can actually do something like d.i.y or hobbies etc.

Plenty of time for a gym session in the evening or whatever.

Your Mrs will have you mowing the lawn and painting the fence once you've moved in with her and she knows the part time hours you work Daz :)

She does all the painting and decorating,I do the garden at weekends occasionally but it's just a tidy up and leaf blowing as she has artificial grass....

I will do more cooking and taking the dog out when I move in though....😄
