    They should have tarmac-ed over it.
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Heavy rain was forecast this morning but all we got was fine spitty drizzle :( . Only 1.5 mm in the rain gauge and not much collected in the water butts.
    Doncaster, South Yorkshire. Soil type: sandy, well-drained

    Fine rain for hours. Just enough to make the grass grow😐
    Caught the petrichor. Is there a better smell? Frying bacon just maybe🤔
    In London. Keen but lazy.

    Rained here , but just a spit. I've now used all the water in my butts and have 5 empty water butts.  I'll have to do a rain dance at this rate.

    Love the petrichor smell.  ;)

    I foolishly decided to clean the upstairs windows this evening . I've been bitten on my face and neck and one adventurous sod bit me on the knee. They're probably lurking in the bedroom waiting for seconds😠
    Bedroom windows closed at night for the next six months. I hate that😠

    Is 'clean the upstairs windows' some kind of euphemism? It sounds like you're having more fun than most though so I won't judge.

    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    Some frisky lads they winked at me
    bit me on the neck and knee
    I only came in for a cup of tea
    When I'm cleanin' winders
