Better - for a few hours

After weeks of almost non-stop rain, we finally saw the sun again today - until it started raining again. Amazing. Anyway, in the last week we've managed to get a few tours off in between thunderstorms, with London, Belfast, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Milan, Madrid, Oslo, Vancouver, Toronto, San Francisco, Cleveland, Denver, Antigua (!), Sydney, Tamworth, Brisbane, Adelaide & Wellington among others represented. Don't bother bringing your own umbrella - bring your own boat!

Just read yesterday's post again....more of the same.

Ok, seriously, enough......

Another four straight days of rain with more coming. This has to be the most disappointing summer weather ever...

Wet, windy & wondering where the sun is

We've been rained out quite a bit recently due to the appalling weather but we did manage to get in a few tours here & there. London, Seattle, Hong Kong, Johannesburg, Edinburgh, Oxford, Omagh, Cork, Lisbon, Dallas, Phoenix, Perth and Darwin among others were all tough enough to take a chance on the dark skies. Thanks again to everyone who came out for the tour when it looked like it was better to stay inside!!!

Get inside - now!

This was the scene in the main square at about 1:30 pm today as black stormclouds rolled in ahead of strong winds and then intense rain...

Don't like the weather? Wait 5 minutes...

Another back-and-forth day today between the sun & the rain clouds. The weather is doing us no favors lately but we've still welcomed visitors from Fort William, Chicago, Portsmouth, Hamburg, Puerto Rico, Lyon, London, about seven different places in Australia and our first ever guests from Charlottesville, Virginia.

Cold, windy & rainy - must be June

A very wet, windy and generally terrible week of weather is hopefully done and gone with the sun finally making an appearance today. We've been rained out three times since our last post six days ago but we did manage to get in a few tours with lots of people from London and others from New Jersey, Chicago, Oxford, Buckinghamshire, Oregon, Windsor, Missouri, Wokingham, Toronto, Bethesda, Edinburgh, California, Liverpool and Bahrain (!) all being brave enough to take on the elements. Thanks to all of them again & let's hope the worst is past......
