Rain



We are having a few days of rain. We can't complain, as it has been very dry
until recently.
Here are some words for a rainy day:
The rain is easing up. (getting less)
The rain is letting up (stopping)
The rain has let up (stopped)
It's pouring down. (raining heavily)
It's bucketing down. (raining heavily
The heavens have opened (raining heavily)
It's raining cats and dogs. (raining heavily)
It's drizzling. (slow ,steady rain)
Rain, rain go away. Come again another day!
It's a good day....for ducks!

My home town is said to be the wettest town in England.
The valley of Borrowdale to the south of the town has the most rain in Britain.
They say the people who live there have webbed feet (like ducks)

See you or some of you tomorrow

Because of many reasons(as usual),I have to go back to tokyo again.
So, i'd like to pass Friday's class.
May be I'll be back by 14th.
Everytime, you're generous enough to take my selfish request.
Thank you :-)

Thanks for letting me know.
Every time you are considerate enough to let me know well beforehand.
Is Gon in a Typhoon-safe place?
Shep isn't. He is outside braving the elements. His dog house is sturdy and has a door., so he should be OK
Take care in the Metropolis.

I forced him to come in a house. Of course he refused. But no coice.
He had been watching outside during night, and walking around like a polar bear in a zoo.
I wonder he may not come in again.
Take care!

I hope you are talking about Gon, not your husband, Akiko!
