Here's a clue or two.

It goes around and around without getting anywhere, wastes loads of energy, runs up a massive electric bill, makes a hell of a lot of noise and blows a load of hot air.

Now whatever could that be ? ;)

aren't they those things they use out on the olive groves ?

will have to ask the housekeeper ;)

Re: Is it ever going to stop raining?!?!?
 

the BH had a dr's appt this morning so drove here into work in the big city,
well tried to, the A-335 through the olive groves was totally flooded.
It was bad a couple of weeks ago but today the cascades coming off the olive slopes has taken off the top soil and all the stones (well some are small boulders) and most traffic had to turn round and find alternative routes.

Also had a gang out shoring up a couple of places where the road cuts through the mountain side and the soil and rocks have been falling down on to the road.

Add to that a power cut at lunch time, only a few minutes but the computer was knocked out again. Good job I bought a UPS today, except it takes 12hrs to charge before use.

Sun, Sea & Sangria :confused:
well no sun,
80km from the sea,
but still got plenty of Sangria and got a top-up from Alcampo whilst out there.

Well the rain and the thunder kept me awake most of the night!
Got up to find the leak in our flat roof has gone worse since the BH made an attempt at mending it again the other day during one of the rare fine spells, it's not content now just to run through the electricity box :eek: and into the container, it's now spreading along and trying to make an indoor swimming pool in our dining room.
If it would only stop raining for a few days we could fix it!

After breakfast we set off for our monthly shopping trip down on the coast, that was when we discovered that it's now raining into the car. :ohmy: :blink:
On top of that I think a cat must have sneaked in there yesterday while the tailgate was open......it stinks to high heaven, so much so you wouldn't believe, we traveled with the windows open all the way. :frown:

The Guadalhorce river was in flood and also the Rio Grande, it wasn't raining as hard as we approached the coast but there it was the low cloud and the sea fog that was a problem.


Next time I wish for rain as I did a few short weeks ago....will somebody please remind me just how bl**dy awful it is here when it does rain?

Re: Is it ever going to stop raining?!?!?
 

You mean to tell me that you wished this on everyone and you are admitting your guilt!!!!! I wonder if this is grounds for a lifetime ban. :D

Guilty as charged, but in my defence I'll say that it was 40c at the time. :)

Re: Is it ever going to stop raining?!?!?
 

Yes, this is a country of extremes!

I think we have a couple of days respite here before the next lot rolls in ... enough to do the laundry anyway.

Re: Is it ever going to stop raining?!?!?
 

Finally got 2 loads of washing done and dried today. It was lovely in the sun,

Re: Is it ever going to stop raining?!?!?
 

Happiness is getting into a bed with clean sheets dried in the fresh air - even if they do smell ever so slightly of woodsmoke!

Re: Is it ever going to stop raining?!?!?
 

So just how do you dry your washing in wet weather ?, you know when the air itself is damp & full of moisture. ;)
