Simon ... pictures are beautiful but they're breaking my screen the same way the OK Cupid quizzes do. I can see a < /table> at the bottom of your post as well, if that's relevant.

Fixed that! Now to fix the other problem...

Gorgeous! I've got to go over to Flickr and favourite some.

It was absolutely magical.

We parked at the side of the road, got out, walked into the field. There were a few slowly decaying spikes, and then onse we were out of the sight of the road, the field was just awash with colour.

And all because of no grass cutting!

Well, I dropped on over to Flickr and checked my favourites. I left a comment for you on the last one but I might as well tell you here: the last photo of the grass against the evening sky is practically identical to the mental image I had when I started to write one of my stories ("Naming Names"). While I was commenting, I suddenly had an idea for another story.

I'll have to thank you in print when it comes out.:)

Very cool. Thanks for sharing the pictures. I wonder if one of the spikes could make a cool mandala. :-)
