Flower Friday: Rose in the Rain

Our tea roses have taken a while to come into bloom this year - they've had fat buds for a while but I think it must have been too dry. Now that we've had a fair bit of rain they've burst into colour - this one was looking particularly lovely this afternoon.

Thanks as always to BikerBear Anni for hosting.

Please don't forget: Tomorrow is the first Saturday of the month and therefore is a hosted Silly Saturday in memory of Admirer. According to my calculations (I hope I'm right!) this is an extra-special one as it's the 300th Silly Saturday! So please put your thinking caps on and dream up a fab blip which would have made Admirer chuckle - or even laugh out loud!
