How else can we cuddle up on the sofa with a good book and a proper cup of something cheerful or even just sit and listen to the rain fall. I love a good thunderstorm! So romantic.<br /><br />I'm writing again, I do hope you stop bye.<br /><br />Lots of love to you and Simi,<br />MMariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04170401447671532001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26674022.post-44274328754415594642010-07-20T12:03:22.278+02:002010-07-20T12:03:22.278+02:00I rather like going to bed and hearing the rain th...I rather like going to bed and hearing the rain thrashing down on the roof.

And now the persistent, too warm sun is making us utterly miserable and thirsty. Is there anything more comfotable than lying in bed under a blanket and falling asleep with the sounds of the rain on the roofs and windows? BTW, I love your photos. They're refreshing.

I found myself out on my balcony a couple of nights ago looking at a grey sky, but it never rained.
