WHAT A THOROUGHLY WET AND MISERABLE DAY

I've nothing positive to say about today at all. Driving rain, strong gusty wind and just miserable. 

Charlotte Bronte had it summed up so well in the beginning of Jane Eyre

" There was no possibility of taking a walk that day.  We had been wandering, indeed, in the leafless shrubbery an hour in the morning; but since dinner (Mrs. Reed, when there was no company, dined early) the cold winter wind had brought with it clouds so sombre, and a rain so penetrating, that further out-door exercise was now out of the question."
