Rain Rain Go The FCUK Away!

It's June, it's summer, it's the weekend and it's raining.

I shouldn't sound so surprised really.

There was going to be a school sports day fundraiser thing today - now there isn't due to an oversupply of wet stuff contravening numerous Health and Safety clauses and sub-clauses.

As a result I'm very happy, stupidly so. Probably means I'm a passively aggressive sociopath, or something.

The weather reminds me of a trip I once took to Wales, a place where it rains 99.99% of the time.


Q: Do you want to hear about?

A:
1) YES PLEASE, MR LORD LOAFER SIR - YOU ARE, AFTER ALL, THE GOD OF ALL STORYTELLERS!!

2) NO, PISS OFF YOU BORING KNOBHEAD

I know I have slagged off the aesthetic appearance of the locals in Wales, but the countryside there can not be faulted. Apart the existence of Merthyr Tydfil that is. Which should be demolished in it's entirety. It would be a mercy killing.

It's one of those places that is not only completely crap to look at and no doubt crap to live in it is also a place that is difficult to spell. While checking the spelling just now I came across the Merthyr Tydfil County Borough website. Thoughtfully, (although what the thought was I don't know exactly) they have installed a link to a webcam on the site. I had a quick peek and yes, to my utter lack of surprise, the webcam showed that it was raining. And generally looking like crap.

Check the link if you don't believe me - http://www.merthyr.gov.uk/home/Community/Webcam/

Clouds, rain and unremitting grimness.

John Betjeman was wrong...

Come, friendly bombs, and fall on Merthyr, not Slough
It isn't fit for humans now... or ever.

Bastard... just been disturbed by some Italian speaking Jehovah Witness Weirdos.

So anyway...

My trip to Wales. Very funny. Beats my trip to West Africa hands down.

Sod it, I will tell you about it next time I blog.

Give you something to live for.

I'm nice like that.

Enjoy the rain, I'm off to feed the cat.
