Torrential Rain

Today we awoke to torrential rain, so bad Ruaridh after his breakfast was extremely reluctant to go into the garden. Back to bed, up breakfast and after Graham left for the office a wash before donning wet weather gear and trotting off to the woods.
Although the rain lashed down the wee fellow and moi had an amazing walk through the woods, no sun yet some of the leaves on the trees had light on them, the ones on the ground wet and shiny--amazing.
Back home made the dough for the peasant bread, made pesto and the pastry for a quiche.
Had lunch and listened to the afternoon play on Radio 4 'The Road Wife' interesting. Then attacked a pile of ironing. Phoned mum she appears to be OK though said she couldn't get going yesterday?
Got the tatties ready for dinner, then Graham phoned that he was on his way home, so Ruaridh and moi got ready for another walk in the woods--this time no rain. met Graham on the way home.
Had a cuppa then made the quiche leek & broccoli with roast tatties and peas for dinner.
Watched a Fellini film 'Fred and Ginger' main characters great the rest too fantastical!!
To bed. Goodnight.
