    Well!  It seems Autumn has arrived, after all, not withstanding the late summer heat wave. My Colchicums have suddenly popped up.

    Sorry to hear your news LilyP, hope everything turns out OK.

    Hi from Kingswinford in the West Midlands

    About 2 pm a big dark cloud rolled up form the west and then there was about five spots of rain. Wow!   Anyway, no complain, it's a bit cooler. image

    Morningimage

    Seems strange to think you are heading into autumn Pat, just as we are hurtling in to spring.  Do you have good autumn colour to look forward to in your area?

    Got everything crossed for LilyP and family.

    Hi ChIcky.  We've planted avenues of of deciduous trees and shrubs over the years so we get a fairly good colour show, but they are still hit and miss with growth. Our region is very dry, so we need to physically water trees and as we've got older, it's become a bit of a chore.  The pinoaks are probably the best, but it varies with each year.

    Dove it's good to hear that Ma was in good form.  She seems quite happy in her worldimage

    Pat your colchicums are very prettyimage.  I think the emoji you saved from Lyn will move when you send it.  Try sending it in an e-mail to yourself.

    We're off to Edinbutgh for lunch with sil and her OH at the Mussel and Steak barimage.
