Really ?

It was lovely to see the return of blue skies and sunshine this afternoon ..... but I was also taken rather a back to see that the leaves on this Rowan Tree have started to change colour.  It seems *far* too early. 

My main achievement today has been getting up early-ish so I could join my fellow Dawn Dippers (not that we actually dip at dawn) for the 8.15 morning swim. The achievement is the getting up rather than getting in :-).
