It rained!

On Friday it really came down.  Saturday afternoon saw some very fine drizzle for most of the afternoon too.

On Friday morning it was total cloud cover, before the heavens opened, so I got out in the garden (short sleeved) and trimmed back some of the bushes.  I did half an hour and it did bring out some rash but still not nearly as bad as I have had it in previous years.  Then, as I said, it rained so I stayed in.

On Saturday I went to the gym (short sleeves again), parking about 100 yards from the entrance. The rash didn’t get worse.

Today hubby and I went to Brighton.  Today was heavy on the sunshine with cloudy intervals.  Today I wore my denim shirt and kept my hands in my pockets.  The rash seems to be slowly improving and I am happy.  Why?  Because I can go out for several hours in jeans and a long sleeved shirt and have a good time.  Hubby is really on-the-ball with my exposure times, probably even better than me.  Today he steered me to the shady side of the street – when there was one – and was a real help.  Did I tell you how much I love him?!
