Sorry, but I only do reality.

The conditions only affect your enjoyment if you allow them to. Go prepared for and thinking the worst and things will turn out better than you feared.

I made another sacrifice to the weather gods before leaving home. It absolutely pissed it down in Sunderland last night and my bedroom is in the atic. Me n the Mrs had our final full nights sleep rudely disturbed by lashings of r**n which woke us up on numerous occasions.

Off to get the coach from Sunderland to Stoke in couple of hours for leg one of the journey.

I shall be making another sacrifice in Manchester by lugging my stuff plus poncho, wellies and waterproof trousers through the city centre from the coach to train station. And to top off the final sacrifice, it will prob r**n on me during this trek, after all it is Manchester!

Can't believe this time tomorrow the gates shall be open! Yessssssssss!

It's warm and increasingly windy here in Glastonbury [town] with hazy sunshine. Good weather for drying the washing I just put out on the line.

It's looking like 2004 to me - far from my favourite year but could be a lot, lot worse

Anyway see you for sunshine and cider tomorrow!

It's going to be slightly better than 2009 as there will be no more serious rain.

two months!? What planet are you on? There's been a couple of weeks of heavy showers. The south west was experiencing drought conditions up till early June. Christ, everyone is all doom and gloom on here.
