Rain on me, little on the garden

There was some very light rain this morning, so I didn't water the pots (or pick any red currants, black currants, loganberries, raspberries and "wild" strawberries to have with my breakfast cereal).

There is a youth centre that was one of the old Essex County Cricket grounds near the bus stop and this morning there were 6 wood pigeons on the grass. Two of them were laying on their sides, every now and then opening the upper wing to get some of the rain on the on the underneath of the wing and the bit of the body usually protected by it.

The weather forecast I heard on the radio this morning had predicted rain this afternoon. And we had this at work (Euston). It had eased off by the time I stepped out of the building at 5 pm but had started up again before I reached the pavement!

I arrived at Walthamstow Central to find sunshine and dry pavements. It doesn't look as if we had any rain in the afternoon. It doesn't look like we will get any this evening either.
