The thing about being a roving organist (i.e. playing somewhere other than the place where you live) is the fact that one cannot just stay at home if the weather is bad. I had a 25 minute drive this morning on a dual-carriageway but the rain was tipping down. I would much rather have stayed at home. The rain was hitting the church roof through most of the service too and it made quite a noise.
This is one reason organists get paid. The congregation can stay at home and, sadly, many did.
