Autumn has definitely arrived and tonight as it was pouring with rain on my way to the station I was very glad that I didn't have to join the throng of umbrellas on London Bridge and could go to Cannon Street to get my train instead.

BBQ minus one hour and it's pouring with rain :(
Will anyone even want to sit outside today?

We walked through the pretty Queen Mary's Rose Gardens on our way to the BBC 10k in Regents Park this evening and found this rather interesting piece of topiary. It was a rather damp for running but that didn't stop both Mr W and I getting PBs in the race!

This summer has been fairly dry, but this morning it decided to absolutely tip in down.  Unfortunately though in my rush to leave the house this morning I couldn't find my umbrella and so ended up arriving at work somewhat damp despite the best efforts of my trusty anorak.

We're off on our way to Dorset for a weekend's camping with friends. First stop though is a night at my parents where we get a comfy bed before we head off to pitch our tent in the countryside tomorrow. Slightly put out though that after weeks of sunny weather, rain is forecast this weekend!

9am on St Swithin's Day and my umbrella was already wet.  Not a good omen for the rest of the summer if the old proverb is to be believed:

St Swithun's day if thou dost rain
For forty days it will remain
St Swithun's day if thou be fair
For forty days 'twill rain no more
