Confused!

The flags are bravely, or foolishly, having a second flowering.
As I lay in my bath last night there was a spectacular show of sheet lightening.
Today there has been rain, wind and rainbows.  
I'm working flat out at the moment - the deadline for the grant application for the art project is tomorrow and I think we just about have all letters of interest gathered in - some by the skin of their teeth. I'm also trying to get my talk sorted for next Saturday as part of the Skellig Coast Archaeology Festival which looks very interesting.
From next week I intend to have  only frivolous thoughts centred around the Christmas gathering!
