Help! It isn't raining

Help! It isn't raining and I don't know what to do. There is a large red ball in the sky and I heard someone refer to it as the sun. I thought that this was a myth.

Re: Help! It isn't raining

Went for a walk yesterday and now the back of my neck is all red. Is that anything to do with the ball in the sky, do you think?

Re: Help! It isn't raining

I'm just back from the Azores (their dry season) and it poured. The band of cloud came from New York, over the Azores, where it soaked me and then swept up into England and gave the flooding of a week or two back.

I am off to Lesbos next month. At the moment most of Greece is on fire, but it will all change when I get there!
