Rain rain go away (oh, and some chilli pictures)

The sunny weather which tempted me out into the garden yesterday morning lasted until about 8pm and then the thunder arrived and with it, the downpour.

The rain literally bouncing off the carport roof.

Rods of rain lashing down in the back garden.

Eventually however the rain cleared.

A rainbow after the rain finally cleared.

Unfortunately the broken cooker was not fixed in time for me to cook my fajitas with onions and chillis grown in the garden, and lettuce on the side from the garden. So the "cookery guide" addition to this blog will have to wait til next week when the cooker is fixed.

The chillis ready for eating now on the plant on the bedroom window sill.

The downstairs chilli plants are now finally fruiting too, and this flower is still hanging on, despite the fruit developing at it's base.

I am going to start a section on this site about what I've learned, and techniques I'm going to use going forwards... I would be very happy for anyone to contribute advice and ideas via the comments section so don't keep that knowledge to yourself.

Cheers for reading.
