I came across this song while I was looking for something else ... a bit of serendipity ... ...and sure enough, it's raining now, it has been raining almost without a pause for weeks, and we're all fed up with it.
Especially as it is mucking up my birding activities .... Grumbling Stumps, our local reserve, is more or less totally flooded, most of my routes to my favourite spots have turned either to lakes and/or mudbaths, the estuary path is a right mess, the local park, a rather sloping affair, is mostly a long, slippery mudslide ... oh, and have I mentioned the wind ? Yes..... we've had ferocious winds as well. Oh ..and it is very cold as well..... 2° this morning. There's a sort of pact between me and the winter weather... If it rains, it ought to be mild.... fair do's. Chwarae teg, as the Welsh have it. And if it is dry, I'll put up with the cold. But wet AND cold ... that's not on. Wizard ! So that song is a bit of consolation ...but not much.
