No Walking In The Rain!

I've known what it is to be hungry, but I always went right to a restaurant - Ring Lardner
Welcome to the Friday Feeling 🍿
Let's hope it's stops raining!
Brew and Hug.

No walking in the rain for me...

I tidied up the house.
Wrote yesterday's blog.
It was still raining when I left to go for the ride in Sexy Beast.
Now for some singing in the rain...
It was still raining when I got to work.
Quick read of the newspaper↓
