Sunshine on a rainy day

Is it a path or a rivulet? Well, it's usually a path, although it will and does double as a rivulet in heavy rain and during prolonged periods of wet weather the whole common can resemble the waterlogged Everglades (a slight exaggeration maybe, but only slight). We ventured out this afternoon after the days atrocious weather to find parts of the common still waterlogged, paths still flowing with water and where not evidence of where the water had scoured the paths and carried along woodland detritus only to deposit it where and when the rains subsided. The seasons are changing so we'd better get used to it as as the  wetter weather takes hold the common will, in parts, become impassible without wellies.
