Wet, wet, wet

More news of research into Manchester rain by the indefatigable Dr Andy Russell.

It is getting wetter.

The rain is raining not more frequently, just more heavily, most likely on a Tuesday.

I heard Dr Russell mention in one radio interview that 'a place called Lyme Park' was getting the worst of it – without taking the opportunity to point out that one of television’s most iconic moments depended upon there being a good supply of rain in Lyme Park to keep the lake full so that Mr Darcy could go for that swim.
