Rain Stops Play: Croquet and Melon

5th August 2012

We had a trip out to Hidcote Gardens today; the weather was great but the thunder and rain started just as we stepped out of the car.

It could have been worse; after trolling around looking at the flowers in the rain, we came across an abandoned Croquet match.   The rain must have started so suddenly that one of the players abandoned their half-eaten slice of Melon.

There was not a note by it like you find next to a pint at a bar 'I have licked this' so I suppose it may have been fair game to finish it off; I did not fancy the challenge though.
