OK....so i know we have had a lot of rain since then.
And yesterday I surfed down Riley's Hill on a wave of rainwater.

The Hyndburn? Is that the river that I knew as the River Stink when I was decades younger? Really used to smell down by (I think) the paper mill in Rishton.
Anyway, people of Accrington, we need some rain in Kingston. Maybe a trade agreement: we would be happy to take some rain. We have to trade an abundant supply of moskies, skunk, squirells, chipmunk, deer, moose, bear, wolves, coyotes, snapping turtles, Canada geese, mallard, all kinds of game birds, and loons (altho' I hear that Ossy has an oversupply of these). Maybe some sunshine, we have enough of that to spare. And to fill all the new lakes that may soon be on your doorstep, how about some bass, lake trout, salmon, perch, walleye, whitefish, lake cod etc.
