THUNDER IN UK

[Nina A]

We were so lucky down here in Cornwall. We had decided to visit the beautiful Port Elliot house and estate at St Germans (near Plymouth). This is the first year it has been open and is only open for 100 days (closes in June).

It was beautiful when we left home but the sky was ominous as we got closer with sheets of lightening. We had a few drops of rain but must have been on the edge of the storm, we could see the rain off to our right. When we arrived they had had a downpour, a few mins earlier and we would have been soaked. By the time we'd walked round the house the sun was out and everything had dried up. Had a lovely walk through the gardens and park and along the river Lyner [msnsmile2]

Glad you said it Blott, I really didn't want to tease them back home.

We still have a week to go of this beautiful sunshine.[8D]
