Rain dance…

…if you want it to rain just follow a few simple guidelines:

First cut some fresh garlic picked on the full moon, then carefully slice some newly slaughtered flesh (bacon or ham will do), wash some lettuce and a tomato then get some mayonaise (preferably Hellmans) from the fridge. None of this will make it rain but you will have a delicious and nutritious lunch.

To really encourage precipitation of a vertical nature then simply spend a few days carefully, painstakingly, (with skill and cunning) creating a perfect roof from well-seasoned timber; choosing a time of year when the merest whisp of a cloud is a scarcity indeed. Then stand back and admire your work as the first rumble of thunder meanders through the valley…

No – the tiles aren’t on yet. Yes – it will be buggered if it really does rain.

Anyone else having a good week?

I didn’t surf today.

PS – 17 bonus points if you know who painted the above rainscape.
