It's raining here, just drizzle now but was proper raian first thing. We are supposed to be going to a sort of country fair today in Burlats, which is some distance away.
I'll have to check the weather before we set off, or not.
Could go tomoz I suppose.
Forecast implies it'll be ok.
Just read it up and it looks as if the falconner has got the hump after accusations of cruelty so he won't be there. So we ain't going.
As if you could be cruel to a falcon. If you were, when you let it fly it would just falcon off into the distance. Not come back to your gloved mitt!!!!

I was lucky enough to be born in the tranche of age where, back in 1981 just afore my first marriage, I was able to get allergy tested at Torquay hospicle. They told me I had a whole load I didn't even know about! But of the obvious ones were grass pollen and tree mould so they gave me the subcutaneous injections designed to desensitise the bod. Injections given by the GP, one a week for 3 weeks. I had to then sit in his waiting room for an hour to make sure I didn't go into anaphylactic shock.
From then on I have never had hayfever again.

Why did they stop doing it?

Cos too many idiots decided they din't want to wait the hour, went off and then went into anaphylaxis.

So these idiots prevented millions of decent people from getting a very normal and longlasting treatment.
Last I heard there were two hospitals still doing it, but that was years ago. :(
I've never suffered with eny type of allergies and always been a out door type of guy but the last few years I have suffered with bad prickly heat to the point of scratching constantly and drawing blood have tried most of the allergie tabs thay do help but don't stop it 😒😒

I guess it must be just to do with the heat.
I've only had it once, on a coach trip to Ephesus when on a holiday in Turkey, (obvs) horrible.
So checked it out.
Yup caused by narrowed sweat glands only relieved by things mentioned 'ere, corticosteroid creams etc.

But you'll know all this already.
 
It's Shrewsbury Steam Rally this weekend. Had I been in the neighbourhood, I might have popped in to have a look. It's amusing on wet bank holiday weekends to see the fields used as temporary car parks transform into a quagmire and the cars get stuck. The high-vis clad marshalls attempt to wave people into and out of parking spaces, but no matter how vigorous their gesticulations, the road-biased tyres of two wheel drive vehicles fail to gain purchase on the wet grass.
