Default No more sun 'til Christmas and drought

The dry spell is getting quite severe around here now - just 12mm rain
in this part of Norfolk since the end of July.

The farmer next door was ploughing the field last week (the one you can
see on the camera at www.ivy-house.net) and he may as well have been
ploughing the beach - it's just sandy dust.
A good gale could whip up some major dust storms with the autumn fields
now bare soil (dust).

You could well be watching the dust fly then on Monday, Chris.

Caught a few cracking sun rises on your camera recently :-)
