Colour in the Garden

Or should I say, still colour in the garden.  This time a morning image as the sun pokes its way through the trees bordering to the east.  From a planter in the patio the rest of the garden is still stubbornly in shadow.

It was a good enough day for washing on the line and the lawn being cut, as well as collecting fallen leaves.

In the evening I enjoyed watching England run in 11 tries against Chile, but then was enthralled by the match up between Ireland and South Africa.  How the Boks must rue the lack of a reliable kicker!  Still a magnificent win for the Irish and here's hoping they can go further than the quarter finals for the first time.
