Rain!

We have been quite lucky with the weather since we arrived. It has been dry , warm and sunny enough to sit on the terrace in T shirts each afternoon. Until yesterday. Yesterday was heavy cloud all day and in the evening the rain and strong winds started and continued until lunchtime today. We managed to get the laundry mostly dry before the rain started (no tumble driers here, just washing lines and airers) and have not been out all day today.
Luckily the weather forecast was accurate for once and we prepared by cooking a big fabada stew for two days - chorizo, morcilla (black pudding) and beans cooked in wine. They forecast showers over the next three days but not like the downpour we have had. We are really hoping it improves next week whilst Pete is here - he caught a poor week last year.Read more
