We get less than one day of rain a week here, Dave, and even then it only rains for an hour or so, and then stops.The copious amount of precipitation you get that we don't
We don't get much, ask Snapper. It's even sunnier here than Saltcoats
For constant rain, move to Glasgow!!

We get one morning/afternoon of rain a month here it seems. "We're" famous for our sunshine and mild microclimate in this little peninsular. Alex is twelve miles up the road and it can be chucking it down there, whereas here, we may just get a few spots of rain...

What's wrong with Little Feat? Good band - although 'Down on the Farm' was a rare lapse in their usual high quality IMHO
