   I am at home with an ear infection, weather is good here!
 
    Was feeling sorry for myself, messing about on the net and stumbled upon this

   Made me realise that I am not as bad off as I thought, so I sent the poor bloke a tenner.

  Yes I did, it may be a scammer, but I would hate to think I couldn't spare a few quid for a man who may well be in desperation.

  Would a quid or two really hurt?

Don't listen to the BBC!

I did and thought "I'll get in a small commercial before 9.00 and home for a late breakfast"

Finished commercial and thought "Maybe a coupla small houses then ... "

11 o'clock I thought -"I'm nearly on a ton! I might finish this estate before the rain starts"

Just before 1 o'clock, still dry - finish estate, have lunch.

1.15 - still dry! "Let's go and do a farmhouse and add £22 to the coffers."
2pm - still dry!! "Do another farmhouse"
3pm - still dry!!! "Do a bit more"
3.45 - heavens finally open and off home I go.

It's a game of three halves!

The bbc is the worst for local weather. They always err on the side of rain. ITV is much more accurate around here.
But the bbc weather site is pretty accurate most times.

I find it wired how the BBC can cock the weather up when its all from the same  source.
