It's bloody great for my business, although enough is enough. They say that it should be sunny Tuesday to Thursday but rainfall may return during the weekend. Drove across to Fujairah yesterday and it was frightful. Mind you, we have Kenyan visitors arriving on 6th April and you can bet your bottom dollar that the rain will have ceased by then.

Oh i told my helper not to bother until the weather cleared up!

I'm out at ICAD, yes raining and really windy, not sheltered by any buildings, so really bad, no lightening or thunder as yet.

I will be alright though as I have got holy water in the car and a st Christopher, ha ha, such a good catholic gal, my mam gave it to me years ago and told me to always keep it in the car, to protect me. The drive home will be a mare, lots of cursing on my part, hope st Christopher forgives me

I dont get it... you complain when its too hot, you complain about the rain when we get it 3 times a year.... you complain about anything.

Come on enjoy it while it lasts. Yes I know people drive like idiots during the rain, but they drive like idiots when its not raining too.
