Floris

The heavy rains passed through overnight turning the burn beside our apartment from a gentle trickle to a torrent. The noise with the windows open was a constant roar of water.

By 9am the rain was falling heavily but the staff were still out cutting the grass!! The winds picked up only after 10 but whether we were in the lee of the hill or the storm was passing further north, we did not seem to experience the full force of Floris.

There were even bright spells of sunshine but always the risk of showers. So it was a day of hunkering down in front of the laptop then a book and then a late afternoon swim.
