Today - the 29th of August I am desperately hoping for rain. The national meteo service has promised it, with warnings.
When I got out of bed early this morning (0800) and looked over the back garden I was quite shocked. The extensive lawn looked rust coloured, brown rust, dead. The large leaves of the maple had all fallen and covered the grass. So I decided to provoke the rain gods as much as I can.
To start with I there is a bright red bathroom mat conspicuously near the rose bush ring. And it seems that a cushion has fallen off one of the outdoor chairs...also it would appear that I have foolishly left a loaf of bread outside.
All this scene setting has been hanging around for nearly three hours to very little effect. Is it possible I am going to have to sacrifice an expensive pair of leather shoes?
