Climate

The leaves are still falling, but the weather was good enough a few days ago for yr obed servt to get out with the mower.  With a lot of wet grass and some chopped down rudbeckias and sedums now populating the garden waste bin, it’ll take a bit of schlepping to the front when the toon cooncil deigns to empty it.  

We have finally got round to the images for the Christmas card, rather later than usual.  Nothing spectacular this time, but they’ll do.  We’ve had to replenish supplies of envelopes, labels and card (though the printer ink is holding out so far…).  Finding labels compatible with our address list was a real struggle, and we were finally obliged to buy from the generous and altruistic Mr Bezos.  We've largely finished writing the cards (pending fresh supplies of card), and are reminded (notably by my arthritic knuckles) how rarely we need to write these days.
