Nice droplets again Dave /I have some lovely pics from my first few days in Tenerife but unfortunately can-t post them as mum-s upgrading her broadband and is awaiting a new router /so no wi/fi at the moment! Very frustrating but as soon as I can will post them! We had an amazing sunset yesterday evening and because they had rain a month ago the plants are fantastic too, everything is flowering and it-s greener than I-ve ever seen it here!

Today in Pictures......On another of those days you wouldn't put a dog out, I took a dog out.
1. Water is coming down places you don't normally see water.
2. Should I shoot the rapids, no, I don't think I'll bother.
3. Razor Strop fungapusses on a silver birch by a babbling brook.
4. Last time I was here I could walk the stream bed in parts.
5. What am I doing now I hear you ask, well.....I think the doggy paddle is the best I can come up with.
6. Time to break formation and find a footpath.
7. And this is the footpath I found.

Great shots Dave some of that water looks almost solid. You deserve a medal for your all-weather efforts, hope Bob appreciates them as much as we do.
I think I am outstanding in my field, and woods and rivers and reservoirs

In fact I was the only man outstanding, I was going to go up the quarry at Hapton but when I got to the edge of the woods it was whistling with wind and rain, I didn't think it was wise to go any further. Still thats a walk for another day.
I like them all.
Wish I'd been there - however cold it was.
