This time it's a passing shower, earlier it was large hailstones, much of the time merely rain! Trapped I remained by the damp streets and holes in my ageing trainers. There was nothing for it but to watch football. This reveals an insight into my luck however. I watched some of the Manchester United v Everton game, until that nice Mr Rooney scored United's fourth. At that point I switched over to watch Motherwell playing Celtic. This game was rubbish and I was too weary to avoid watching. At the end I discovered Everton had scored twice after I left them and I missed this excitement to become brain deadened by the Motherwell dross. The hail then fell again - through the open window in the bedroom! The picture attempts to capture the sun shining through the rain lashing down at an angle. It failed.
