Allotment (2)

Late evening at our allotment. (This photo looks better if you click on it to blow it up to full screen size.)

I took this photograph at our allotment on Sunday evening after a day of blazing sunshine - hard to believe how the weather would change within the next couple of days...

East Belfast's flood....

A local roundabout during yesterday's flood. You can view a short video here.

rain, hailstones, thunder & lightning....

After the blazing sunshine of the last few days, Belfast is now experiencing all of the above....just look at the water pouring off my neighbour's guttering.
Here's hoping the city's drains can cope.

The grass around my husband's allotment is alive with ladybirds at the moment. I'm usually terrified of any insect or crawling thing, but I do love ladybirds.

Custom House Square (2)

Another shot taken yesterday at Custom House Square.

Custom House Square

There is a great fountain at Custom House Square - where the water shoots straight up from the pavement. Today was one of the hottest days of the year so far, and lots of children were having a great time running through the jets of water.
