February 15th 2014

 
We headed off to Planks Farm shop café for the third Saturday in the row today. The endless string of storms this week gave over to a clear sunlit day in Wiltshire. The images however do not convey the wind that still blew across these vast landscapes of middle England. The gale last night peaked at 2am and I listened to all of it. It was like an express train through the trees in the garden. Much calmer at day break but still very windy. As we drove along the road if we hit any flood water the wind whipped the spray up and over the car, which gave me the idea for the above photograph (obviously I wasn't driving). So much rain has fallen this winter in Southern England its no surprise even up here on the high chalk-lands that the landscape is flooded. It will take many weeks to dry out.
