It's when the rain starts to wash of your features day after day it gets tedious!

I went out today for a few hours and saw the OP Boris out and about. I nearly even got a tan and dodged the very light showers....

I really hope I'm not the only one but I have not yet been on the sea on my boat this year!

A (very) small part of this is weekends being tied up with kids parties, family this and that, other commitments but the weather/sea condition is the real factor - cannot ever remember a summer this bad...

At least one good bit of news today, they have at last lifted the fookin' hosepipe ban in this area so if the boat does ever get salty I can at least wash it down...
