Rain, Glorious Rain...


Something quite remarkable has been taking place here in Kuwait - we've had rain! There's been a proper, constant, drizzle for the last two days or so of bona-fide water coming from the sky... The weather's almost Scandinavian in character (well, late Summer in Scandinavia) with mist, not dust, blurring the horizon. We've even been wearing sweaters of late...

It's been fun, and a bit nostalgic, and it will probably 'drizzle out' soon. But it's been unique...

On texture photos, have you seen these snapshots of martian landscape?

Thanks for the link Sarah... Those are some great, and a bit surreal, photos...
