Rained off

Hard to believe some parts of the country a mere 500 miles away from here are calling 'drought' already. It's rained ALL day here, nothing spectacular, just that annoying mizzle type stuff that's enough to put you off taking a camera out.

With the ladies of the household off screaming at Enrique (not Yugioh as I said last night, that's his old man) Iglesias, and with Euan off to his pal's house for some 'non expanding recreational foam' (NERF) battle manoeuvres all afternoon it was the perfect opportunity to head out with the camera. But, as I said, it mizzled. So it was an afternoon of clearing some series-link stuff off of the Sky box before picking up Euan, a couple of pizzas and some needlessly unhealthy snacks for a night in front of the TV. And I had the cheek to 'tut' at the steamed up car full of McDonald munching munchkins parked next to us as we stopped off to take some photos down by Alloa harbour as the rain almost stopped late this afternoon.

It's getting dark outside just now even though the sun doesn't set for another hour and 5 minutes, so I'm going to at least try and induce some sort of summer vibe tonight by drinking lots of pear cider.

Cheers all.
