Kernow. Cornwall. Lefty, lover of wine, food, history, gardening, art, books, dogs and nature. There's already enough crap in the world without adding to it.

A leaf-strewn path by the River Thames.
Brown leaves swept up against a dark embankment wall, over which you can see a silvery River Thames, boats and beyond, Westminster Bridge.

The benefits of relying on GWR getting you home these days is that invariably you get some of your train fare back due to delays and missed connections. I can't remember the last time that I didn't get some kind of refund. Still it's a fabulous trip back home. #Cornwall #kernow #travel #train

In terms of weather, this year has been one of the best in my lifetime. Perfect mix of rain and sunshine here in UK. Despite recent rain and winds we have also had the most spectacular Autumn colour.

Artist: Ronald Lampitt
A view looking down on a group of families surrounding a lit bonfire. Almost all the illumination in the picture comes from the bonfire and the contrast is warm and striking

In the old orchard at Cotehele #Cornwall mistletoe grows in the branches of apple trees adorned with a rich array of lichens + moss so that as well as all the moths + insects that use apple trees as a larval food plant, it's also supporting the many species who feed on lichens, moss + mistletoe.

If you know, you know. 7.5 hours to here after M5 closed. Only another 2 hours to go. Still a small price to pay. #trip

Baroness Benjamin spent 15 months in foster care as a child.

She's now a member of the House of Lords and tries to make the world better.

Aim high for our #ChildrenInCare.
