We're off to work in the rain today, though we usually avoid it; and I'm off out tomorrow (Saturday) (the only decent day forecast), and from then on the weather is forecast to be worse.

Here's the met office forecast for Newport:

total washout here, in fact it is so bad one end of our lane is impassable :o and the other end only passable with great care.
I woke up at 6.30am and heard the rain on the roof, turned over and went back to sleep ;D
I've had a top week so wasn't remotely bothered about having the day of ;)
