Who loves rainy days?

Living in my flat and by myself, makes no difference on 'washday' as to weather outside. Lovely heat pump tumble dryer, all dried, folded and put away within a few hours of putting the weekly wash (no colour sepeations), into washing machine,

No water butts either now. Can appreciate how dry the ground was and the need for some of the rain that did not come down during May to arrive -but enough is enough. Had it all day yesterday - was pretty disgusted to get up this morning to see it still pouring down. Just stopping now, and promise of good hot sunny weather next week. At least this should have avoided any hose pipe bans now

Well here in the North East we have had 2 solid weeks of rain, fog and cold which is no fun in June . My poor garden is looking bedraggled .

Well, I still have ‘wash ‘ days. Monday’s sheets, pillowcases, whites. Fridays a dark wash.

Not like in my childhood days, dolly tub, copper, mangle, wooden clothes horse steaming round the fire if a wet day, having to help mum fold heavy flannelette sheets......

Probably why I still like a ‘good’ wash day.

I like them ? especially at the moment.

I like a rainy day as long as it’s not wash day. Also pleased to see the empty water butts fill up.

Like many things, everything in moderation though. Not too hot, not too cold, not too wet, .......

Wash day?

there aren’t, of course! Ruddy predictive text!

We really needed the rain here, so I was happy. Resident blackbirds also very happy that worms are available again.

And must confess to enjoying being able to stay indoors and get on with craft-y things, without feeling guilty that I ought to be outside, doing something Healthy.

I do, as long as they’re aren’t too many of them! I like the way everything smells fresher, and there are fewer people around, which means at the moment that I don’t have to keep running back and forth across the road to avoid them.

I love a good yomp round in the drizzle with my hood up early on, then a cosy day in catching up on reading, knitting and TV.

I like a rainy day but not 6 rainy days in a row.

Not really it makes me feel low. I love those sunny days with a blue blue sky!
