Saturday 17th nearly caught up

Got caught in the mother of all storms today. Went shopping at the food market and the heavens opened. A good foot of rain fell in about 30 minutes. The road was flooded up to our knees. Its very difficult cycling in a 'river' especially with 10 eggs in a plastic bag. I had to get off and push the bike and the eggs through a raging torrent of water washing down the road trying to miss the potholes and the kerb. I could have ended up swimming.
