To be REALLY pissed off with this drought...

[SaggyOldClothCatPuss]

I live in the driest spot in Britain, there is a drought, we are all on a hosepipe Ban.....

And it hasn't stopped BLOODY RAINING for the best part of a fortnight!
If this is a drought, God forbid we ever get a rainy spell!

I also bought new sunglasses, sorry! Planning on buying wellies this week...

We've just moved house in this drought. It's been horrendous. And wet.

In my parents' town, the drought caused a flood in the town center and traffic had to be redirected. And their town in on chalk.

The drought has made me wet so many times that now I have a streaming cold!

DS1 asked me when the drought would stop raining on him this morning!
I must remember that 7 yr old boys don't get irony - I think he thinks it's a new word for "rain"

In hour of saggy i too am blaming my horrendous 5 day cold and fever on the blasted drought

The problem is that all rain that falls at this time of year (northern hemisphere spring) is used by the plants.

Bastard selfish plants, never thinking of us.

Yeah, and it's not even as if the plants are pulling their weight! The flipping hay crop has been appalling recently!

Thanks for cheering me up Saggy . I was pissed off with the weather 'up here' as I have had to move from sunny Chelmsford to 'oop North' - it makes me feel better knowing that it's awful down there too!

Our drought has caused DH to cancel his ( outdoor work) has blown over the garden table and is hurling horizontal wetness. The plants are drinking greedily but shivering.

My poor DS is going to have to go out in his shorts to school next week in this drought - it's summer, dontcha know!!!!!

The drought is so heavy here that the grass in my paddock has stopped drinking and started drowning!
