Weather has been terrible for summer so far. Everyone was out at a nearby castle and all got absolutely soaked. I had cycled to work without a jacket but managed to get home in the dry.

I managed a FM satellite contact last night and it was great fun. You have to chase it across the sky as it flys over and talk to other hams. It was reasonably long pass but still only 20 minutes and only one person can talk at once. Still felt I needed 3 hands though.
