Yesterday's weather forecast was pretty much dreadful. Rain was due in the afternoon. We could see very very dark clouds in the distance and we knew they would be heading our way.
Jon suggested we go to Whitby for lunch, at least it wasn't far and it would get us out of the house for a while.
Off we went! We decided to wear our winter gear so at least when it rained we would not get too wet. We wouldn't wear our leathers as once they get wet it is pretty much uncomfortable for the rest of the journey.
Whitby was basking in sunshine and we both commented how warm we were! There was the option of nipping home and changing gear but one look at the sky confirmed the situation. The clouds were black over our village yet ahead, the sky over Scarborough was an inviting vivid blue.....
so off we headed to Scarborough, keeping an eye on the clouds which were changing by the minute!
As we approached Scarborough we could see more blue sky ahead so we kept going, to Bridlington.
At Bridlington we had an ice-cream and a walk about but were concerned about the clouds...definately getting darker! We drove to Flamborough Head where we had a stop for drinks. The lady at the cafe commented how good our timing was, it had just been raining heavily for an hour or so!We had our drinks then headed home via Malton and Pickering.
As we came off the A64 there was a short heavy downpour, but driving through Pickering our jackets dried off in the sunshine. The Moor Road, the A171 was busy but dry! Looking at the road surface it was evident that it had indeed been raining.
We arrived home, still dry but the drive was soaking wet!
By some chance we had missed the downpours by moments.
It just goes to show....as I have said before, the sun indeed shines on the righteous! LOL!
One day you'll look to see I've gone.
For tomorrow may rain, so I'll follow the sun.
Some day you'll know I was the one.
But tomorrow may rain, so I'll follow the sun.
And now the time has come
And so my love I must go.
And though I lose a friend,
In the end you will know, oooh.
One day you'll find that I have gone.
For tomorrow may rain, so I'll follow the sun.
Yes, tomorrow may rain, so I'll follow the sun.
And now the time has come
And so my love I must go.
And though I lose a friend,
In the end you will know, oooh.
One day you'll find that I have gone.
For tomorrow may rain, so I'll follow the sun.
