Wet and Windy

With the schools starting to go back yesterday there was a lot of talk of the big risk being the parents socialising at the school gates.  However there was no risk of that this morning as they were all rushing for shelter. 

I pass this almost daily just now - just off the main path.  I've no idea why that object is there but its been around for ages. A bit like an upturned urn or maybe a bit of a cauldron left behind by local witches.
