Hoping for some warmth very soon...!

My Editor looked out of the kitchen window this morning and liked the appearance of the raindrops on the Cotoneaster shrub. It seemed like a good blippertunity. As you can see, there's a distorted image through the droplet of our neighbour's house and a tree.

Hopefully we'll see some warmer (and maybe even drier?!) weather soon as we head off tomorrow to equatorial latitudes and then to the southern hemisphere. We feel very lucky that we're about to steal some weeks of summer at this time of year.
