When will this rain stop? The weather forecaster tells us that we have caught the tail end of a hurricane, and that there are at least two more days of this to endure before we get back to just cold (as opposed to cold and wet). Good news is that the leaky roof appears to be fixed: bad news is that we now have a leaky window. When Dave comes back to apply the rubber paint to the flashing, I'll ask him to redo the window seals. Liam's got less than 1 week of his holidays left, and he is stuck in the house watching Friends DVDs instead of being outside. What a wasted summer – no doubt the weather will improve next Tuesday, and his first week at secondary school will be the hottest and driest week of the year. Saw on the news that a convicted rapist and multiple sex-offender, who was on weekend release from prison (as part of his rehabilitation prior to release), just won £7 million on the National Lottery. Not sure how I feel about that – he didn't break any laws to buy the winning ticket, and there is no reason he shouldn't get his winnings... but somehow it just doesn't seem right. God certainly moves in mysterious ways, I guess.
