Wet

Not a good start to the day. Typhoon dropping buckets this morning, and then stepped out of the station to have the wind break the umbrella and deposit all the water from the surrounding trees onto me. Got to school completely soaked.

But then things got better. The first 2 classes have been canceled because a large number of students can't get to school in time.

Drying in my chair and looking out the window its really gusty. There is a lull of about 30 seconds then suddenly the wind rips past. Neat. I pity the poor teacher who has to be the crossing guard at the lights outside the school.

I think it's time for a coffee and a quick lie down.

You don't get silly rain in London?

Rarely silly. Mostly it is reserved and polite, not wanting to inconveniance anyone more than a standard umbrella can handle.

Ah, yes, the famous English 'mildly awkward' weather. You're right, that's not silly at all.

So, still with us, Mister Winston, or have the typhoons had their wicked way with you?
