Shutters blue
Day 15 blue
365 days in colour. I've had my eye on these shutters and today I've managed to get a picture of them. Blue skies reflected in the gaps. Today is St Swithun' s Day today and it hasn't rained - yet. According to tradition what ever the weather is on this day so will it be for the next 40 days.
St Swithun's day if thou dost rain
For forty days it will remain
St Swithun's day if thou be fair
For forty days 'twill rain nae mare
A Buckinghamshire variation has
If on St Swithun's day it really pours
You're better off to stay indoors.
