Today it rained until about three o'clock, but I headed off out as planned. I didn't get to see Sandy as the studio was closed and I tried twice. I went to the council office to get Darren's parking permit so that he doesn't have to take the works van to the church car park when he is not working. The machines were down so had to go out again to get cash as they couldn't take card payments, couldn't do receipts either but have said they will send one out. I walked along North Marine and took a picture of a fuchsia with raindrops.

Then another flower in someone's garden, well, a guest house garden in fact.

I cut through to the cliff top, the sea had left patterns on the sand, that sea really does look wintry now!

A couple more flower shots in our front garden, I love seeing the plants and leaves in and after the rain.

This afternoon I have been making some embellishments for the scrapbook and have made a start on putting it together. It has brightened up now so may take a stroll down to the front.
