I knew it had been wet in England before coming home for Christmas, but wasn't quite prepared for exactly how wet it would be. Since we've been back it's rained every day, and although we we're stuck on the runway for 2 hours before leaving Gothenburg, I've been missing the white christmas there.

Another Rainy Morning in Rossendale

We managedto squeeze in one run during a dry morning before it started raining again, to the surprise of the locals who seemed surprised to see anyone doing anything more than walking to the car.

On another dry afternoon, we were in danger of losing our wellies in the mud as we walked across the top of the moors.

Mud Glorious Mud

At least there's been plenty of Christmas TV to stay warm to inside.
