Something Has to Like This Weather

Hardly a day seems to go by without several doses of heavy rain. Today it was a case of sunny intervals mixed with showers where the rain came down like stair rods. The only creatures in my garden which seem to enjoy continual damp conditions are slugs and snails, like this one spotted as the rain stopped for a few minutes:

  2. Adorable snail :) Last summer we had soggy, rain, cold... this summer (so far) we have high heat and sunny days. Last summer, oodles of snails... this summer~ I haven't seen one! Perhaps they have all trekked to your home :)

    1. I can't bring to mind a similar Summer Jan. Amazing how we have gone from threats of a year long official drought conditions to week after week of floods in various parts of the country.
