Stormy Weather

The sky was incredible this afternoon - the clouds barrelling along and the light changing every second. We've not had half of the bad weather the west coast has had, some folk have had a terrible time of it. It must be awful to have to stand and watch flood water rising and not be able to do anything to stop it.

We had a successful outing to Nomad's Tent. A brilliant place to buy genuine middle-eastern rugs. They had an excellent sale on and we bought a lovely footstool, covered in a eye-catching kilim that dates from the 1920s.
