Yes Dave......it made up for my peevish pentulance yesterday.
I had a lovely day out...and I think this is only the second time in my life that I have seen the tide all the way in at Southport. |

Today in pictures. It turned out to be more than a moist moment. So with the sun beating down and hotter than a Spanish deckchair, it was a shirt sleeved experience.
1. Plants develop their own defence against pests. 2. A Larch cone. 3. It was at this point I exclaimed that it was raining over there. 4. Not a lot of bold colours around here at the moment, and with that a few spots of rain started. 5. By now the droplet size was heavy rain sized, and my shirt was at maximum absorbency. 6. By now the rain was dripping off my ears like Bet Lynchs' earrings. 7. Visibility is now naff. 8. Why is he the only sensible one, taking shelter. 9. I don't know why I am now sheltering, my knickers are wet through. 10. Despite the wet through look, the uncomfortable chaffing, and the 10 minutes yet to go before the car will be in sight, I took the time to get a bit arty farty. |

Re: Today in pictures
I really like your artsy shot, Dave!

Re: Today in pictures
Just a minute you two... I just looked at Google Earth to see where Southport lies in relation to Accrington (I know, I know - I've been gone too long :confused:)
If your shots were taken today, how come one of you (davemac) was in pouring rain, and Margaret in radiant sunshine?!! Is the weather that variable over there? |
