Rain rain go away...

Well so much for the summer.

It certainly hasn't made an appearance yet up here in Cumbria... as I may have mentioned before.

Cumbrian Clouds

The PBE was looking fantastic at one point, with high hopes that it would flourish and we'd be over run with flowers and colour and scent. 

The only problem was that fabulous flourishing flowers fail under Cr*p Cumbrian Clouds.

Instead of summer, so far we've had this...

Cats & Dogs

A whole great big lot of it.

There is a drain in there somewhere

At least there are a few plants that seem to be enjoying it...

The wild flowers -or weeds, depending on the type of gardener you are - seem to be shrugging off the bad weather.

Don't worry, at some point soon, something very exciting is going to be happening in our household and there'll much more interesting photos to come. :)


*Update: The weather has obviously heard my rant and the weekend has been glorious, so good in fact, we decided to cut the "meadow"!
