Leaves on the turn

After yet another vaccination this morning, this time the pneumonia one, I headed off to Hilliers Gardens to meet Pauline. The trees are not as far advanced into Autumn as I expected. The swamp cypress in this photo is just beginning to turn. It is at its best when it turns red and is a stunning sight but you have to be lucky to catch it.

I left the plumbers at home to finish off our bathroom (or so I hoped) but it’s now 5.30 and they’re still at it and there’s much grunting and groaning and moaning which I take to mean it’s not going well! Ah well I am still hoping today may be the day for completion!
