20120711 - A Rose Subdued

Come on - we've had enough of the rain now! Just because some people had hosepipe bans... it's just getting silly!

Last night's piccy in colour - which I think I might prefer now. Not sure.

...but I am sure I'm going to be eating pineapple chunks for a while! :O)

That looks like the rose " Queen Elizabeth " and like her namesake will stand up in any weather :)

This is a most beautiful rose, and I hate to say it, but the raindrops make it even better.

A visual delight!

She's sopping wet, poor little petal.
I agree we've over achieved on the rain, lets start a petition to make it stop.
