I'm fed up of the weather now. So fed up, in fact, that I'm going to go to New Mexico, USA, on Monday in the hope of finding a bit of sunshine this summer.
And to those of you who have said that the two week storms are unrealistic, think again!

That's funny! I live in Albuquerque, and you'd be coming during our 'Monsoon' season. You'll get rain, only it lasts for 20 minutes then it's gone. You have to take our forecasts from a certain point of view; 50% chance of precipitation means you get it 50% of the time out here. Sandia has a nice view, but late at night keep an eye out for coyotes and mountain lions. I once saw a lion the size of my Honda Civic. Anyway, enjoy and check out both the red and the green chili. When you go back to the UK you'll be jonesing for it.
