Went up for a swim earlier and it rained while i was in the pool, and there were leaks all over the ceiling dripping down into the pool, i think at least 4 or 5 different leaks that then ran down or along the slats and dripped from several points each, i was thinking i wouldn;t need to go back to the changing room to have a shower(!)I rather like the place and it was sad to see it in that state, i have a feeling maybe i've seen the odd leak now and again in the past, but guess it's got a lot worse while i wasn;t swimming regularly.
Evil and ambition scatter in the the darkness, leaving behind dubious rumors to fly in public. To the next world, I commit thee.

I wonder if that was the result of the very heavy spell of rain that suddenly came over where I am in North Leeds at about 17:30 and lasted for around 10 minutes or so before passing away. Quite impressive for a while and also odd as it was still pouring down even when the rain bearing clouds were going and the Sun was coming out! There was a nice but brief rainbow.
A rainbow is a ribbon that Nature puts on when she washes her hair.

It must have been exceptionally heavy rain for a few minutes at that time yesterday. I was walking along the main aisle inside Morrisons in Yeadon and felt a cold "splosh" on my head - looking up I found a young girl behind me doing the same. we had a chuckle as she thought she was "losing it" and I thought I was - well I suppose I AM, but the girl was about seventeen LOL LOL
There's nothing like keeping the past alive - it makes us relieved to reflect that any bad times have gone, and happy to relive all the joyful and fascinating experiences of our own and other folks' earlier days.
