Each time we chat to friends and family from back home we cannot help but slip into the conversation that the weather here is beautiful.

We wake up to blue skies and bright sunshine everyday, it’s wonderful. So if I tell you that next week sees our first family visitors from the UK. I bet you can guess what it did today…yep you got it, it rained and not just a shower either put proper real rain!

Now I got on my knees and prayed to the weather gods that please please don’t let this be a change in the weather my parents are due in day’s and even though I honestly have no magical powers, it will without a doubt be my fault if it is raining when they come to visit. What makes it worse is all my parents are telling me is how the weather in the UK is great at the moment!! This obviously makes the situation 10 zillion times worse.

You may think I am over exaggerating, but you don’t know my parents, especially my sun worshipping step dad! Even worse I have just checked the five day weather forecast and its all clouds, rain and thunder and lightning!!!! what did I do to deserve this?, the weather men can get it wrong though can’t they?………
