    Good evening all.
    LB, I'm glad that you are satisfied with your hair. Birds leaving is proper sign of Autumn. These days, huge flock of song thrushes are gathering here and leaving. 

    Debs, I'm happy that you have few days just for you and fiancé. Enjoy and try to rest.

    Hazel, sorry to hear that shower isn't finished yet.

    Today was lovely day, but I feel little bit down. Neighbors still don't have telephone connection. I feel sorry for them. I'm waiting my tea to boil and watching Ramsey on internet. 

    Found this photo. Not too far from the truth.

    Think I might have overdone the gardening today.  Back isn't happy and legs are just not responding as my brain dictates.  Tomorrow might not be a good day :/

    Oh Ante, your post about your colleague's mother came whilst I was writing my 'Answers' posts. I am so very sorry to hear that news. It seems that 2020 has been quite a horrendous year for us in more ways than one. I am sure that your colleague will welcome your support but of course you are still at home until Friday. Please stay strong my friend. Sending you a virtual hug.
