A few shots round the lanes

Common agrimony.







Just so Jenny can get an idea of the industrial wasteland I was standing in whilst we had a nice chat earlier

 

Lovely cloud patterns Zigs. Shame the flax isn't that knock out blue that I love.
Common agrimony.So that's what its called - I'll try to remember so I can impress someone one day!

 

Its not raining there. Is that last year?

 

This afternoon, makes a change to see a bit of blue sky & sun.

 

Send some up our way will ya.

 

Make a large copy of this & pin it to the ceiling.

 

Does it go dark at night Zigs?

 

I don't know, can't see.

 

Nice Teasels there Zigs.
The lanes around these parts are putting on a great show of wild flowers this year too, Hogweed in particular is large and abundant at the moment wherever you look. Got much of it down your way this year?

 

Cheers Trunky,

Most Hogweeds are past their bests now, as are the Hemlocks, which are about 8 foot high at the moment. Will take the new camera out next time, this one just don't do justice to the plants close up. Lots of Hedge Bedstraw & St Johns Wort out at the moment, took a pic of Bladder Campion but it wasn't worth saving.

You got any Giant Hogweeds around there?

 

Not seen a patch of blue like yours Ziggy since we got home from holiday last week.

 

Tis the trouble Dave, we need some better weather here or we're stuffed.

I can find no news on solar output later than June 2011, without going to one of Dim's forums.

 

I saw the sun a few weeks ago, so I know its still there somewhere.

 

I've got it all at the moment, three days and counting.

 

They said they won't know if the Sun is going into a hibernation period for 2 years, that was 13 months ago & yet the only data I can find is about sunspots going back down to the same level as 1995.

Why they suddenly gone quiet?
