Red Sky at Night...



Sadly the picture cannot convey the sky form one end to the other covered in a deep pink hue.  Oh to live higher up and get a clear picture! What a wonderful sight this was, and well past ten O'clock at that! Wonderful evening, the rhodur... rhodand.... the big bush over the road filling the air with fragrance and setting the scene nicely.
Red sky at night, 
Shepherds delight!


Since the back of two this morning the rain has been coming down constantly!  The papers, radio  and TV are full of scare stories.  A months rain in 24 hours is expected today, floods, disasters, catastrophes and would you believe that when the storm eased this morning as I went to Tesco's   I saw a man in sailors uniform!  It was that bad they have called out the navy!  

If you see any shepherd's while out today, run them over!

We're doomed!!! All doomed!

Something to brighten your day.

Keep calm and carry on.
You need to heed that advice!
(Easy for me to say, right?)
The rain will stop soon, and you will have a glorious rest of July. Here's hoping.

Bob, Thanks, that cheered me up no end!

Kay, I am keeping calm, but the postman's just drowned! That's three this week alone!

Mike, His fire wouldn't last long in this weather.

You seem to have a beautiful outlook from where you live. It is frustrating not being able to capture sunsets (at least I never can). But I am fast losing my trust in all these old country sayings, I must say!

Jenny, We all need a clear view of the sky and country top stay sane.
