of weeks ago this rain is now getting me down. I've become seasonally affected, that is to say, I am SAD.
The Eastern Med is enjoying record temperatures whereas we in Western Europe are mired in bloody miserable rain and dullness.
Headline: Atlantic seaboard of Europe mired in miserable rain and dullness. Dan Flynn, a resident of Manchester spoke for most Western Europeans when he said, "We're mired in miserable rain and dullness."
And another thing, why is the Eastern Med stealing our sun ration? And why are we currently receiving more than our fair share of rain? And will the weather turn before I go camping this weekend at The Festival at the Edge, in Shropshire? And shall I take my wellies? And shall I take a hat, or a brolly or maybe both? I know I won't need a boat because the festival is up on an edge. Wenlock Edge is an escarpment which to me always sounds a risky place to hang around. I read somewhere about people plunging from escarpments, as if escarpments are places to be plunged from, then again it might have been peasants plunging from battlements so what do I know? Either way this coming weekend I intend to not plunge from anything.
And that's exactly how it should be.

Don't fret Dan, La Nina will get the Eastern Med too. When our rain and your rain move to there, we will bathe in sunshine.
I agree, G. I'm not too down. We've had sunshine and showers today so at least we've had sunshine, and to me, every little helps.
