I GOT SOAKED!!! Just had a cycle round the Pentland hills (two hours or so) was fine and sunny at 7am a bit overcast but nothing spectacular at 9 am (when I set off) but by the time I had cycled into the hills it was spitting, half an hour later proper rain (which was getting in my eyes [couldn't find my sunglasses] , making the brakes not work etc). Was in a silly wee T-shirt (will have to invest in some sort of long sleeved T-shirt/cycling jersey)for the start but I put my waterproof on this kept the worst of the rain off (untill it to was drenched) but provided no warmth whatsover. Am feeling more human now have had a shower/bath, lunch, then a sit about/read/tidy. Everything I was wearing is either in the hall drip drying or in the washing machine as it was all wringing wet. Knew I shouldn't have had a day off today.

The rain arrived a bit earlier than forcast today but I missed the rain this morning and it had cleared before I went home this afternoon.
