Gloucestershire in pics: Water, water everywhere
It's been another sunny week across Gloucestershire, but some homes in Matson got an accidental soaking after a water main burst.
They've been celebrating the long-awaited reopening of a road in Nailsworth and planting thousands of trees in Stroud.
Plus we have the usual stunning sunsets and floral displays to keep us entertained.
Water bursts: This photo shows the scale of the water burst in Matson this week. This white house was damaged throughout Wednesday whilst thousands of gallons of water covered it. And there was also a second water burst on Thursday in a different area of Gloucester. It never rains - but it pours.
Just pretend: University of Gloucestershire students were involved in a simulated clash between demonstrators and counter-protesters this week which has challenged the skills of students working under pressure.
Peaceful settings: This orange sky was gorgeous as the sun set in Dursley this week. This stunning image was taken by weather watcher AndrewB.
Stately: The Badminton Horse trials came to an end on Sunday, closing off days of equestrian challenges in the sunshine in front of tens of thousands of spectators.
Community celebrations: There were cheers in Nailsworth this week to mark George Street being accessible once again - after it was unexpectedly closed for four weeks due to a gas main line being hit.
Tree-mendous: The team at Stroud Valleys Project have been looking back with pride at their work, which has seen nearly 20,000 trees planted in the area over the past five months.
Funky flowers: Thanks to weather watcher Beaky for taking this picture of these gorgeous pink flowers in the sunshine in Woodmancote.
