Wet stuff

Monday 22nd August 2022

I went out for a lunch with someone today. When we had finished we were surprised to find it was bucketing it down, we were drenched just getting to the car. I didn't have a jacket and my shirt had only just dried out when I got to my next appointment and I was drenched again getting from the car to the house. It kept it up all afternoon. I'm not complaining, we need the rain. I'm pleased I cut my lawn last night.

This photos shows the water but also the surprise I had yesterday when I noticed these flowers in my front garden. I had been given a few of these plants at the church shop, they had been dug out of the planters by the "in bloom" committee as they had gone over. I then accidentally left them in the heat of the sun before I got round to planting them so I doubted they would flower and certainly wasn't expecting them to do so this year. They add a nice bit of colour.
