Stop rubbing it in, you rotten swine!

Hear, hear.

has rained all day yesterday and today, having poured on Saturday and Sunday. No respite in the offing until Friday, then maybe a wee bit of sunshine, but very cold, max 12 degrees with nights below zero.

And this is what you would call Sunny Spain.

Sorry, it's the basque Country, what am I talking about. No wonder it's like this. As we say Spain Is Different.

That looks loveley and clearly well balanced with that helm. Cannot compete with that but had fellow westerly owners on board for mulled wine and hot mince pies (and the eber was working really well) and a very pleasant couple of hours was had.
