Planet Paradise under water

Well that’s how it’s been all summer in fact, and I can hardly remember experiencing such torrential and persistent rain in all my 53 years on Planet Paradise .

I took this photo on July 9th from inside my patio door

At the time of this Blog entry I can count on one hand the number of afternoons ( not whole days) we’ve had respite from it. Look at some of it HERE!

But let’s not add to the gloom because we have in fact managed to get out for a few hours when the weather’s been OK. Here's one such place- Broughton Sands, North Gower.

And more of which you can view HERE!

Just to finish, unfortunately sadly no sea scene accompanying it, but my favourite Welsh Folk Song of all time, ‘Ar Lan Y Môr’

‘Ar lan y môr, mae rhosys cochion
Ar lan y môr, mae lilis gwynion
Ar lan y môr, mae ‘nhariad inne,
Yn cysgu’r nôs a chodi’r bore’
