A tiny striped visitor was sitting in the water. Now the question... is it a toad or a striped Frog? If its a frog, it's a very welcome guest. if it's a toad not so much.

Monday has arrived carrying yet another bucket full of rain with another 50-55mm expected. Tuesday croquet is looking as likely as a flamingo playing lawn bowls!

The puddles on the lawns have grown into small insland seas.
