A heavy downpour!

When Sophie left for the gym this morning, it was grey and humid. I opened the window in the kitchen and I could hear drops of rain falling on the leaves of the bushes, and this quickly became torrential!

It rained heavily on the way to work and carried on for a couple of hours. We certainly need some downpours for the dry gardens but it made the atmosphere so sultry and warm. Work was slightly better than yesterday but I was glad to leave at 4pm and look forward to a day off tomorrow!

Dinner this evening was one of our favourites, a pork stir-fry with peanuts, beansprouts and soy sauce. breaking open a packet of peanuts gives us an excuse to nibble a few with a drink!
