Only half decent photo I took all weekend

[Porky]

Last weekend was a total wash out for me, longest I was in the air was 12 minutes? rain showers every time I tried to fly.??

One half decent photo I manage to take before the heavens opened yet again.... think I need an umbrella for my drone??

Oh thank you dear boy??

The British summer in all its glory!

It was like that all weekend, it was weird, I could hear the rain before I felt it, quickly hit the RTH, it was the quickest I’ve ever landed my drone?? covered myself and drone while I packed it away.
Very lucky ??

Nice houses, Lovely neighbourhood surrounding!
If only im able to live in one of these...

I’ll look around to see what’s for sale for ya? I live about about 400yds to the right of the photo, right on the edge of town?

Completely unrelated and miles off topic; but would you be kind enough to explain to me the British obsession with "...sex". Wessex, Essex, Sussex....

I think this is superior to the one of this subject where the wall below the houses was reflected.
Very nice!

Have a look at this, should explain it for you?

Meaning of suffix '-sex' in 'Sussex, Middlesex'

I know that Sussex and Middlesex are in England. It looks to me as if there is a pattern in names. What does the suffix -sex mean? Where does it come from?

Thought you’d like it better??, but that photo so such a rush job because of the rain. I was just getting the drone in the right position then it started raining, couple of very quick photos then hit RTH.

Never mind, I still enjoyed my 12 minutes of flying time....??

Nice shot! Very ominous feeling! Glad you got a little flying in before those clouds let loose. I got maybe 10 minutes in over the long holiday weekend here too. So rainy!

Here's what I came away with just running down to the local park during a break in the storm:



This one at least has some interesting shapes in it.


Hope everyone gets some better flying weather soon. This soggy spring doesn't ever seem to want to let up.

Nice photos ISBW? all the rain we had here came from your neck of the woods??

At present our rainfall totals for this year are very low, that’s for the east coast of England but it always rains bank holiday weekends for some reason, typical British weather????

Sorry we sent it over to ruin your weekend! Things are usually hot and dry here in Utah by this time of year, but we've had the wettest spring on record and it's been driving me crazy! ?⛈??

Never mind, the summers just round the corner then we’ll definitely get more rain??

I need a weather-independent hobby for all this rain. I'm thinking maybe crochet. ?

Now that’s a smashing place you live, Singapore. When you come to England, first thing you’ll notice is how cold it is compared to where you are. Bring some jumpers with you?

I’m a valid West Ham fan myself, all my family come from east London hence why West Ham.

Our home ground (football stadium) is where the Olympic Games were held back in 2012, smashing place and very modern.
