Standen House & Gardens.... in the rain!

Needed to get out today... so after some boring but necessary shopping I went off to Standen...

When I got there it was still heavy rain... so I had a wander around the house...











There was an exhibition... not sure about the exhibits..






One of the bedrooms was under wraps to protect it for a while from daylight..










Mr Ponders was hoping it had stopped raining..... it hadn't :(


but this seat helped a bit ....

 The dining room was also in darkenss with curtains drawn to shut out the daylight.. I understand it will be back to normal soon.. when the House will be decorated for Christmas..





and finally the rain eased a bit.. so with brolly I headed out..



The new Bothy





Ponders up high on the bed...




A scone was called for... a nice one today..

and a further walk in the garden.. by now the rain was not so heavy...















Then home.....

Like the snooker table and the autumn colours - perhaps ponders will give me a game - but the freaky sculptures are not what I'd want in my bedroom

Those freaky sculptures were the least freaky ones. I wouldn't like them in any of my rooms Simon :D ..
