Unexpected encounter with an umbrella

My first day home, so lots to catch up on before a Festival committee meeting this afternoon. It was grey and drizzly all morning. After 2 weeks in exotic parts, (well, Scotland is certainly different), I wondered how on earth I would find a suitable blip.

As I drove out of the village I spotted a lovely young woman standing looking into the field of golden crops. I stopped and reversed so that I could ask permission to take her photograph. What a wonderful umbrella to liven up the scene.

The committee went well. The Festival bookings are ahead of last year this time.

Ready to slump in front of the TV tonight.
