Wet Start to July

It is now July and raining again. I was sort of hopeful that July would be better that June but unfortunately it is not starting off that way. The forecast is for light showers for four out of the next five days but of course for Thursday, my next day off, the forecast is heavy showers.
I did cycle to work yesterday and really enjoyed it. Even the journey home was good and quick. It is much easier in daylight as I cross Glasgow Green but prefer to avoid it in the dark yet it does cut off a long detour. The idea of it helping me get fit and lose weight failed as I stopped on the way home and bough chips which we ate at home. Lovely supper 
I've just heard that I've got two days annual leave at the end of the month, combined with two days off I'll have four days off in a nice run. If the weather is good we might try to get away camping or go walking or even both.
There must have been some decent sunshine as there are now lots of red strawberries in the garden and a few raspberries that look nearly ready. I'm looking forward to eating them in the next few days.
I enjoyed watching some of the tennis from Wimbledon last night. I am not a tennis fan but got excited watching Andy Murray fight back and go on to win the match. I hope he wins again tomorrow.
I suppose I need to go back to work now but I'll probably look through some blogs and might even find some to comment on.
