I've got to go to Halfords later to get some widscreen wipers, and I can't drive there in case it rains! :?

I've got a Sat-Nav and a wife. One tells me where to go and the other one tells me where to go! :-)
Ask yourself why, then post the answer.

We had 10 degrees above average yesterday - 35 C and it ended with a huge storm - wind, thunder and lightening. Today's a lot nicer :-)
