Raining buckets of cats and dogs

and barrels of donkeys, and vats of giraffes, and tanks of blue whales. 

Jayzus... 
Boy did it rain today! It even was a topic of conversation. And we are pretty blasé around here about this sort of things. 
Christ on a bike, it was pouring. 
And it seems like it was just Christ and me on a bike, in Dublin city centre around 4.20pm, through the sheets of rain. 
Still, the wet gear did its stuff. It got wet. Very wet. And me inside the wet gear, I only got moderately damp. 
Mostly from sweating. 
Another good week in the Repair Factory. 
It's such an odd sensation. Feeling useful.
