Oh dear, thank goodness I never took the cover off of the bike

Oh dear
Thank goodness that I never took them over off of the bike.
One minute blue skies and sunshine
Five minutes later this.
A downpour.
We only intended going up to my garage to get the Triumph out but the rain stopped me in my tracks.
Would have been drenched before I got to the garage and worse, Yvonne would have got wet too.
Oh well never mind
Need to find something else to do until the rains goes away and the roads dry up a bit.

@Ineeddentures Did you "have it when you needed it"?

Well me too
And the downpour has continued today.
Our towns big day- and agricultural show which will be ruined by the rain.
People won't pay a lot of money to wander around a muddy field on a Saturday afternoon
It usually goes on into the evening, but already the traffic suggests many have already left.

It did indeed Eva and we got out to some shops and McDonald's yay for us.
And it stayed dry all the way home also.
So it turned out to be not too bad a day

That's a pretty heavy downpour and guess you were stuck inside until the rain let up. Hope you still got the opportunity to take the bike for a ride at some point.

We are lucky today.
We did eventually get out and got to the shops in another town 10 miles away and now we are in another town having a cup of tea in a McDonalds.

@TheHorse
We are still 20 miles from home in McDonalds so I hope it doesn't start raining again on the way home
A swim before work sounds like a thing that I would enjoy if I could find a pool close y that was actually not closed down because of council spending cuts

Me too
That would not have been very nice.
The rain went off
The sun came out
And off out we went

@Ineeddentures We're just hoping two people will be enough. It's pretty high and somehow you have to oik it over the air-conditioning unit, etc.

@JudyEv
Can you not build a big car port
Be easier than putting a cover on it

It would take a lot more effort Judy.
Probably a two person job
