Forecast today was the possibility of a shower or 2.
So I thought OK I should be right with the Summer textile jacket and a pair of draggins.
The trip home from work was not a great deal of fun.
The wind was a bit ordinary, but I can live with that.
The rain wasnt so bad as it wasn't cold at all.
The hail however left a bit to be desired.
I did have a laugh at all the Sooky car drivers who pulled off the road because of the conditions.

Lyndhurst about 5pm.
Hail didn't last that long but was bloody painful through a thin jacket.
