Rutland Water.

Rutland water is a lovely place - went with school and cycled around it :)))) Sorry about the weather - we had thunderstorms back then :D

That does look very low,Lincslass..very worrying..I have never been there,but looks a nice place for walking..:o)

Used to ride my bike through the middle Paul, of course it wasn`t a big puddle in those days, can remember the locals getting petitions up to try and stop it ever being allowed...
Its beautiful Bloomer, plenty to do and theres also Geoff Hamiltons Gardens as well at Barnsdale..

I will bear that in mind,Sue..I would love to visit
Barnsdale as well..thank you.:o)

Know the wonder you're celebrating the rain!!lol

We have Bewl Water near us & that is very low as well.
Your so right lincslass we need the rain, just no snow please.

It must have been that rain dance you did Lincslass. :o))

GLad you got some rain :))))) nice pics :)

Lovely place, do not think the amount of rain we had will do much to add to the resevoir stocks though, need some more me thinks. Amazing how they look when they have started to run down on water, lovely blog. Makes you realise how much we all need to conserve our water supply. Thanks Lincslass.

Lovely place it looks. Visiting nearby Barnsdale was always in my plans although a little too far for me. The late G. Hamilton was one of my favorite gardening presenters and I owe him a visit.

Pleased you are now getting the much needed rain, looks a lovely place, the mist adds to the beauty;0)

I agree, it's a lovely place Lincs - thanks for the pics - never seen it like this though. I've only been twice, both times to visit Barnsdale, which is run by Geoff Hamilton's son (who looks just like him!).

Amazing to see the low water levels...

Looks like a nice place to sit and watch for birds ( a bit warmer though ) hehe :)

hope you get plenty of rain to get the levels up again sue :o)

Wow , aren't you so lucky living there. We have been to Geoff Hamiltons Barnsdale a few times and stopped at Rutland water for a snack. I can't believe the water level has dropped this low.
