between the evening's showers

looks better on a black background (i.e. viewed large) but then again, don't most things?

Graham worked from home today to give himself a bit of a head start on his trip up to Doncaster this evening to visit his Mum who hasn't been well.

I spent a frustrating morning/day trying to sort out the ongoing nightmare of us having been identity frauded and somebody taking out an online payday loan using my debit card and address. Such a pain. There is a whole website devoted to fraud via WONGA.com, who it seems are far from scrupulous in their security systems in that they allow people to take out a loan and have it paid into a different account from the one where the repayments are to be taken.

Sam went to a friend's for the day and I left early to go to collect him so I could take a rather long detour in the direction of Chipping Norton because I thought that the rain clouds/sunset situation might give some interesting light. I wasn't disappointed. MUST change the time on my camera for BST.

Angus decided to take the x-box apart to clean the dust out of it because it is causing problems with discs loading properly. I must admit to secretly hoping that he fails to be able to get it all back together properly again until after his exams - evil aren't I?

Got a goat with a dodgy eye at the moment. Going to leave it over the weekend to see how it gets on but think I will probably have to get the vet out on Monday - there's always something!

Fab for me. The light is beautiful. Sorry about the identity fraud hassle

What a fabulous sky and lighting - Fav. I hope that is a warning to people about WONGA. There are so many people scamming and defrauding innocent people. It really is a disgrace!! I hope you get things sorted out quickly because it is always a worry when people have your bank account details - hugs and hope your goat is better so that you don't have the expense of the vet on Monday

Fab colours & still loads of detail. Thought Nigel had been out your way wfor a minute but then I realised he went to Chipping Sodbury. That whole Wonga thing sounds like a nightmare - how do you prove it's not you - and whatever happened to the FSA? And how did they come to steal your ID in the first place?
April 15th, 2013  
Wow beautiful - gosh what a time of it your are having. Sounds like a nightmare...
April 17th, 2013  
Just love the tone of that late evening light.
April 28th, 2013  
Glorious Golden Glow! That light is exquisite. Fav

Sorry about that identity theft stuff. Sounds like a total nightmare. I keep telling myself that I need to sign up for a protection service, because I am NOT the type to deal over and over and over again with account managers etc, trying to straighten everything out. I've heard horror stories, so I hope you are able to get yours cleared up soon.
