I was torn today when I woke and heard the usually welcome noise of rain on the roof. On the one hand, it is so needed for the corn and other crops and for everyone's gardens and lawns.
On the other hand, why oh why did it have to happen on a Saturday when I was helping to run an event for 100 people from out of town, and for which I had argued strongly that no, we won't need to rent a tent?
Actually it all worked out for the best. We moved the morning portion of the proceedings indoors, and although it was a tad crowded a real sense of camaraderie developed. And by lunchtime the rain had lifted, though it was still overcast, and we could have lunch outdoors as planned. (By the way: Triple Fresh in Ercildoun does some awesome catering!)
