rooftop gathering, warm rain, prayer

Posted by Picasa Trade union?

The warm rain today is laden with scents. It reminds me of something Richard Maybey wrote about the "oils and resins" released by plants in such weather.

Regular customers are greeted at the deli counter in Sainsbury's by a Spanish woman who, as she serves you, with her genuine warmth, makes it seem more like a corner store. "Have a lovely Sunday," she invariably says. And to another regular customer who has apparently not been well. "You are much better?" ...."Good. I will pray for you."

I really like this chimney pot photo - characters gathered together different yet united!
