The cats house, we just pay the mortgage..
I don't know about the rest of the world, but most of the UK is experiencing major downpours....autumn is here me thinks!

I am at work but would like nothing more than to be curled up on my sofa with a cup of tea, a couple of furry cats and a good film. Maybe my duvet aswell

What do you all like to do when it's raining?

minus flying and motorcycles of course. about the same as i do when there is no rain. Play some video games, play with the cats, play with the wife, and or read a book, however i do not yet know how to do all of those at once


sometimes i get dragged kicking and screaming to the shopping mall. i should have the cats teach me to how to hide faster

I love curling up in pyjamas and watching a good old film with a nice cup of rosie, I love the cosy feeling of the rain battering against the windows while im all snug inside.

well believe it or not we had two days of patchy thunder storms
here in Spain. I love it, cos it means my plants get a good old drink, and cos we dont get a lot of storms, its great to sit and watch the grey clouds rolling in and the lightening flashing. Once its done, well you can imagine it all dries up and we are back to normal

Curled up on the sofa with a good book, or friends re-runs, with Mike (S/O) and Villy would be complaining that she can't go out as she'll get wet!

Everyone is making me want to go back home and crawl right back into bed! It is pouring here as well.

Mine are exactly the same Kenzie, LuckyGirl will let me know when she wants attention, and Louie will purr even if he's in trouble! And he'll cry to be picked up, or just scale your legs like he's a rock climber!

Gail you are so great! That is the same thing I always want to do, and never get around to doing, and so I just end up with GIANT piles of paper work with no where to go with it all!!!


On a rainy day, I would LOVE to be home, laying on the couch in my pjs or sweats, either reading a good book or watching some Lifetime tv for women! Of course that includes cuddling with the kitts, and a hot cup of tea & or coffee!!! But in reality, rain is usually a pain in the butt, cause it always happens on the days I need to be out & about.... and yes we have yucky weather here today too! Traffic was obnoxious, and I am getting a tension headache from my drive in this morining.

So what do I do on rainy days?
Wait for the biggest and heaviest downpour to mission to Asda and get soaked as I decided my gillet would be good enough!


Gosh I look attractive now!

Ideally DH and I would sleep in; wake up around 11 am or so; and curl up on the couch with tomato soup, grilled cheese, and a good moive. After finishing the movie, we would take another nap, and afterwards we would curl up with a good book and some hot tea.

IA. If you need me, just meow..
I would probably be turning on everything to keep the mean old thunder at bay.
If it was just a rainfall though, I'd love to be in bed with the covers pulled way up, with the tv on a good movie or even a DVD would be great. Oh yeah and some coffee, or hot chocolate. I need hot things to drink now. It's starting to get cooler. YUCK!
And of course 4 cats in the bed with me, DH's optional.
