The sunlight as the sun started to go down in #Taunton this evening, I was hopeful for some nice pictures when I got onto the #BlackdownHills, but it was just cloud cover.

Views from today's cycle ride off the #BlackdownHills to work. I'd say the M5 was fairly busy for the time of the day that I took the pictures.

Views from my walk to work this morning #Taunton and then back to #Wilmainthewild #KiaNiro2EV this evening.
No, I didn't walk from the #BlackdownHills, I'm not that crazy. I'm hoping to cycle in on a Saturday soon, but it is weather dependent. It can't be too hot & humid.

Reading the report, you were very lucky. The video must show a crazy time, and it just wasn't your time (thank goodness) as you've still got plenty more to chase. Take care on your next excursion.
