"Many haws, many sloes, many cold toes!"
Old country wisdom says that an abundance of hawthorn berries and sloes in autumn is a sure sign of a cold winter to come. Have you seen a plentiful crop of haws and sloes in the hedgerows near you?

How do I handle the chaos? 🥺 I create my own tiny, ordered worlds. 🖤 a 4-day journey is my sanctuary: selecting papers, soft soldering the glass frames, intricate hand-stamping and painting, and a final resin seal. Art is protest. #softsoldering #handmadejewelry #zette #sacredvandalism

Looks a bit like an okra flower, doesn't it?
It's actually from a seaside tree shrub we call Beach Mahoe.
Mothet Nature's interesting and amazing, isn't she?

Like so many old English houses with extensive grounds, previous owners had ‘follies’ built as attractive garden features that served no practical purpose. This is Jackdaw Castle that features several times in the Downton Abbey series. It is currently awaiting refurbishment.
