Tuesday's downpours weren't much of an event here, the rain was steady through the morning but pretty much just the odd shower by 11.00. My grandson was enjoying playing in puddles at the farm, but by the time we went back up about 17.30 you'd hardly have known it had rained.
"Where puddles gone Nana?"
"Out came the sunshine, and dried up all the rain..."
I'm glad the water butts are full again. The lightning indicator on WeatherBug showed storms moving north from Bishop's Stortford and there was plenty going on around Ely. They missed us completely, not even a rumble. We're south-west of Cambridge and I've often watched storms track up the M11 corridor, but don't come far enough west to entertain us.
A quick note to Tom - I do hope you'll continue your informative posts and links - tiramisu recipes always welcome - and I, as someone the same age as you, will try not to frown at 'weather girl' references!
With regard to your dental pain, if you can take codeine I highly recommend Paramol, the black packet, which can be bought without prescription from any pharmacy. Swilling a solution of Solpadeine around the painful area helps, and Diclofenac works for me, it's prescription only though. Lying painful side down against a pack of frozen peas can help numb it too. I hope it's easing for you now.
