You know you're living in Scotland...

... when it is a sunny, ahhhhhh, lovely day. The flat is bathed in sunshine and everything is pleasant. Thinking about a quick jaunt around the botanics which is 5 mins from here. Eating a strawberry from the fridge. Wimbledon about to start on BBC1.

Then within 5 minutes the sky goes the colour of dark death, I have to put lights on and the heavens open. It is POURING like you can't imagine. It is cold.

This is Summer. What is it going to be like in Autumn, Winter and Spring? Oh well, if I'd wanted sunshine we should have stayed on in William's flat in Cape Town, which you'll see is on the market for 2.2 million rand for those of you looking to invest.
