Irish rain.

Was I really talking about early summer so recently? Today we are wrapped in a steady, slow, damp rain that seeps into every crack and corner. I dropped the car off for a recall check and it was a wet walk home.

Warm and dry again now though and writing offline as a technician has cut the power in order to fit a Smart electricity meter. I’ve signed up to take part in a national usage trial. Interestingly the technician is female. That's unusual.

The combination of damp rain and no electricity reminds me of childhood caravan holidays.
