You can't win

According to Denis, we needed some rain to "water the plants". We got lots of rain this morning! However, it was "too much rain" and the plants took a bit of a battering. You can't win. Helen and I are off to the dentist for a check-up then shopping in Kendal. Thankfully, the rain has passed and the sky is brightening. Our Russian visitor left this morning, leaving us a Russian doll as a gift.
