Painted Lady

The thunderstorms last night have a lot to answer for. Jet was disturbed by them and woke us up barking. Stephen set off from London for the journey home and ground to a halt at Peterborough. York had suffered a lightening strike and could not receive trains! He finally arrived much later than planned. He has had to change plans to meet up with a friend and will now not arrive home until this evening.

As we leave for the Lakes tomorrow apologies in advance for a lack of commenting. Just considering whether to turn off commenting.....if I can find out how.

Really pleased to find this solitary Painted Lady on our walk today. Amazed it can fly all the way from North Africa.
