    Hosta ... thanks for those photos ... the Hepworth garden is such a special place ... I always want to lock everyone else out so that we can have it to ourselves. 

    Interesting to see some of the changes at the Tate ... fabulous new gallery ... looking forward to seeing how they're going to use that space image

    I kept looking for you on the Harbour Webcam ... thought we might see you two walking past ... you must've snuck around the back way image  

    You made good time ... but it is much quicker going via Lelant rather than driving the last wriggly bit.  

    Great plants ... look forward to seeing them image

    Dove, the staff were, as you'd expect, lovely, so I was chatting to some of them.

    The new space can be split into as many as 6 "rooms" and part of the revamp was to include heavy lifting gear so they can have bigger, heavier pieces in there . 

    The park and ride train from Lelant was such a wee treat, especially on the way back when the sun was shining and the beach at Carbis Bay was empty.

    It is a lovely little train journey isn't it ... and so civilised image

    I hope  they don't divide it up into lots of small spaces too often ... one of my gripes about Tate Stives as it was is that it was a bit claustrophobic ...  which is a shame when there's so much light around image

    Morning all/afties Pat.

    Glad you had a good day Hosta. Photos are lovely

    Already quite unpleasant here - sky's black. Not cold though - I took daughter to work just before 7 and it was already double figures. We have a weather warning for wind all day Tuesday, yet the gusts are just as high for Monday night, and not that different from today's. No warning.  I had a look at the hill forecasts and it's the same. Weird. image

    Not much gardening happening today, but I might do a little indoor stuff - I won't say h****work...

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
