The start of day on day 3 of the Lock down Royal Ascot was not a great one we had heavy rain overnight and in the morning. Social media went down (and still is ) so was unable to get some of my photography posts out, more rain and downloading the final race images when i got home they all went blank.... Did i mention the rain?
