It's the most used icon on our weather maps

I've not made a post for ages because I've been busy recoding my gallery plugin to make the whole process shedloads less manual and a lot more idiot friendly ... although I'm currently the only idiot using it ... I've also had the ballache of recoding the demo magento skin to make it work with the release version of the software .... ah well, at least it'll be a very custom skin I suppose .... anyway, enough about coding, this post is meant to be about the field.

As usual we've had a fair amount of mixed weather, about all we haven't had is hail, thank god it's summer huh? Whilst rain isn't exactly my idea of perfect shorts weather, hell it's not even my idea of "go outside" weather, at least it put our new drainage system to the test ... it passed with flying colours ... in fact, all of the beds are in pretty good nick this year. Anyway, seeing as I had to go water the beds that were already under cover, I decided to nick Gary's camera and take a few pics.

Wow! a ball of fire in the sky!

In all fairness to the weather, the sun has *almost* managed to fulfil it's contractual duties of 12 hours of sunshine for summer ... of course, we hoped it'd do it all in one day, not spread it over several weeks :-S. Ahhh well, at least I got some good photos that didn't involve water
