It’s been a truly miserable day here today – wall to wall bucketing rain. My Mum and I enjoyed a spot of retail therapy in Southampton this morning, getting rather wet in the process. When we returned home I found this forlorn little figure sitting on a pile of Harry Potter books (OK, he may have had a little help from me to climb up there!) looking wistfully out of the window and I felt he deserved a moment in the spotlight here on Photoblog to make up for his rather damp view!

then come with me to the guests! here the sun shines! Davorka · 2010-10-01: 13:01

Sweet. Terrible weather here in Surrey, too. But I have a regulat singing workshop on Fridays so had to venture out. Lynda · 2010-10-01: 13:11

I used to feel disappointed about rainy days so I planted some gourds. Now when it rains I celebrate how good the plants are doing. Your friend looks good in his red sweater. maharba · 2010-10-01: 17:31
