Rain rain go away etc etc.

It's just absolutely poured down today .......water running down the paths in torrents. Much the same tomorrow unfortunately too.

Photo taken through the kitchen window at the height of the rain.

Garstang Agriculture Show Saturday which is a great shame.......the ground is quite dry so hopefully the water will have soaked in & they won't be too bogged down. So sad when all the preparation over the last twelve months & yet it might make a loss financially.

Three good things:
1. A lovely visit from our grandson last night of his own free will!
2. Ready cooked chicken for tea.
3. A bit of a lull in the B&B to draw breath.....nobody in until next week unless the baby comes before time!
Oh, what a shame about the show - fingers crossed the weather people have got it wrong - it wouldn't be the first time after all.

Oh I remember it well. We've had no rain here at all - just a few drops and we could do with some, everywhere is so dry. Hopefully tonight or tomorrow.

@busylady yes Judith, it's a bit different than when you sat out there!

What a lovely sitting-out area. (The wall would keep Jinks in). Everybody here is wanting rain for the garden.

You know how I said it was sunny here....well now the view out the window looks much like this....doubtful me and littlest will get out on a camera walk tomorrow now!

@quietpurplehaze ha ha Hazel but the rest is all open to everywhere....the main road is a slight walk but you would never keep tabs on him here!

I almost did an identical shot today pat. Not that the view of our patio is similar, but the rain when i got home from work was of downpour status...wrecking my poor ladybird poppies :'(

We got caught in this at Scotch Corner - luckily we had stopped for a brief comfort break! Huge queues and Monty flatly refused to get out of the car - only gets out for beaches now!

Such a lovely patio...too bad about the rain!
August 1st, 2014  
Hopefully it will be ok for the agricultural show. Lovely when grandsons visit (not that I have any yet!), but I know the thrill my parents get when they pop in - grandsons seem to get really busy...

No rain here, but due tomorrow apparently. You have such a lovely garden.
August 1st, 2014  
Wow, that does look like a lot of water. You make it look nice and colourful in spite of it though!
August 1st, 2014  
Rainy maybe, but what a pretty courtyard!

Lots of rain here as well in Shropshire -- the garden really needs it Shame it usually comes towards week ends !! Hope it will not be too much of a wash-out for the Garstang Ag. Show tomorrow such a shame when this happens when so much prep. and work is put into such Shows - A lovely shot Pat -- love your large patio area you have got --super !!

Oh we have had pretty much the same here today. The cat, Annabelle and myself have had cabin fever

Well that lovely hot weather can't last in England! Got to keep the land green somehow but hope there is no flooding like there was last year, was it? Lovely clean and tidy area! Now wet!

We also have had rain here, we needed it for the garden . But a shame it clashed with the show.
August 1st, 2014  
What a beautiful patio area. Shame about the Garstang Show. Hope the rain stops and it isn't a washout.
