Will it ever rain again?

The stratus fractus clouds came over us today but there was no rain. As I write, I can see a few but the patio remains dry. The weather is so good that the jobs list is getting longer. It's just too tempting to go out somewhere. This afternoon, Barbara and I went down to Welton Water for a walk. It was a bit breezy but, once we were sheltered, we were attacked by hordes of midges. Meant there was food for the first swallows of the summer that we have seen.
We spent the previous couple of days baby-sitting at PARKs. Got over there in plenty of time to collect Rowan from school. He stayed to football so Barbara and I went early enough to watch the last ten minutes. He enjoys it but I doubt he will ever play for England!
The swimming day has been changed to Monday so things were not as much of a rush and we could play with the kids and talk to P&A. It seems Kirsten had spent the whole of her lesson sat on the side of the pool and when she was lifted in, had screamed the place down. The instructors reckon that they have had worse!!
Rowan and I met Michelle and we walked round to school with her and her boys. Kirsten was arguing about something so we left them to come along afterwards. When she is good, she is very very good but when she is bad, she is 'orrible. We had a good afternoon as we took her to the park in Rothwell. Barbara went in to the shops while I stayed and pushed on the swings. However, once we got home after a call at the library, she was tired and just wanted to curl up with a video. I went and met Rowan and he just wanted to play on the computer. Luckily, Amanda came home at 4pm so we had someone to talk to. She had been on a Powerpoint course and it had finished early.
There is a new arrival next door to them. Julie went into labour at just after 4am. Neil was at work and he came home and took her down to the hospital at 6am. She had a baby girl at 7.40am and we got to see the baby because she came home around 5pm. Haven't heard anything since so assume everything is okay.
I decided I had better ring the pension people today as it has been over 2 months since my retirement date. Apparently my acceptance letter arrived too late to be included in April and I will now get paid in May. The savings account has taken a hammering, just hope we don't have to incur any penalties. The holiday I booked last year is coming up and had to be paid. Luckily I got a cheque for PARKs half. Thank goodness for t'internet banking.
