"summer" rose

underneath the dark skies of the English summer...the lack of sunlight is playing havoc with the roses.

Drained of the energy from the sun they are all growing black.....in stark contrast to Brit flesh which is maintaining a ghostly shade of white....see 2 blips back ( ok it was sunny for an hour that day!)

On more cheery matters, happy independence day to our American cousins and Blipping good ones on here :-]
