The monsoon has arrived at Torksey now, not much chance of any top down motoring today.
Looks like it's here for the day too.

Same here and I have got to go to an out side birthday bash.
The sun's come out now I've finished my job. I've been rain dodging all day. Might get out for a top down drive when I've been fed.
Absolutely hammered it down here for about 4 hours but stopped now. Both sides of the roof have leaked now and puddles on both seats.
Amazon do roof covers for £40+ mate as a short term measure.Absolutely hammered it down here for about 4 hours but stopped now. Both sides of the roof have leaked now and puddles on both seats.
Dry and sunny here now 
Annoyingly, it's been rain and drizzle all day while I've been loading and unloading the car with all Jamie's stuff. 3 trips (and several soakings) and literally 1/2 ton of stuff moved (several computers, goodness knows how many screens, clothes, desk, assorted furniture, bed, table, tools, the list goes on). All down the narrow steep stairs in a two up two down. In case you were wondering I wasn't using the Zed
Got to work out where to put it all now
Time for some eyelid inspection

After a week off from work in which we have had some lovely weather I haven't driven my Z3.
So this afternoon with work looming I thought lets take the old girl out for a spin.
Headed off for Evesham giving the dual carriageway a miss in favour of the country roads.
Once there I took the road for Pershore as I did it started to rain a little thinking I was heading into the rain I spun round the next island and headed back to Evesham taking the dual carriageway back to Redditch with a heavy right foot enjoying my sounds from both the stereo and my exhaust. Driving into Studley thats when it happened the heavens opened and I notied old bill had turned round to keep me company.
I pulled into a pub car park for the quickest roof up job I've ever done.
Heading home with water dripping from the roof. Not pleased. Once home back out to the old girl for an interior wipe down.

Heavy rain and thunder most of the day in Hertfordshire.
No drives out again so far not been a good year weather-wise for car things.
Cars are permanently dirty as well.

It's not been too bad here today
Very warm and drizzling with rain
You can keep the rain up your way @t-tony
you're only 6 miles from me and it absolutely honked it down here mid afternoon. Gutters overflowing, patio flooded. Could do nothing except drink tea and watch it!
Did Liz send you the invite personally?
No, she does not like me. And I hate Dutch birthday party's (big thing over here) with people you don't know talking b*******s about their caravans and other stuff, was glad to get home in time for the F1, oh, and the weather was not bad, no rain....
