Rescues....!!!

From the garden on Sunday....!
The only gladioli that had bloomed yet.....I think it’s very pretty and a bit like an orchid...the flower is a lot smaller than normal gladi blooms...
A very late emergency Blip as myself and my friend were on a shopping trip to Ikea ....various things ‘jumped’ in my trolly and we were exhausted...it is a gi-normous building and very busy with students shopping to set themselves up for the new school year...
And you should have seen the rain on the way home.....torrential....floods everywhere...!!
