    To be fair last summer was down right horrific and as much as I don’t enjoy the rain at all, I’d rather not have to deal with 45° heat again any time soon.

    Could we maybe get a solid 26/27° instead?

    Spare a thought for those of us who live on the Tour de France route

    Endless entourages of lycra-clad, middle-aged men wiggling their Lidl-advertising buttocks at you as they trundle up a mountain in a pack the length of an hgv with no opportunities to overtake while leaving them the required 1.5m

    Each to their own and that but fuck me, yous have some fuckin grotesque bumcheeks

    Oh great, thunderstorms due tomorrow just when I start work. Guess I’ll have to go by public transport instead of bike.

        Oh no! Is it very painful?

        (and the weather wasn’t anywhere as bad as the forecast! Could have cycled!)

      Hurrah for public transport!

      I’m discovering the joys of running to work (just 4 miles) when it’s raining - still quicker than the bus! 🙄

    I was at a beer festival all day yesterday and saw maybe five minutes of rain?
