Favourite leaves to walk through this lunchtime?
I think beech leaves (crispy, nice colour and shape), but oak leaves are a pleasant shape. Sycamore have best range of colours tho. Red maple are appealing but a bit spidery. So beech it is. Glad we’ve cleared that up. Important stuff

Docklands looking particularly lovely earlier this evening. It’s the evening before a busy national trade show where I’m ’on the stand’ and I appreciated the calm

Walking through the train to get a cuppa and I couldn’t *not* see someone’s laptop screen where, in size 80 font, she was typing ‘We must chase Comms about this’

My first time seeing La Bohème - such beautiful dialogue and music - ‘we love light-heartedly’. And extra special when performed by the Ukrainian National Opera, who ended the evening with their national anthem 💙💛

A very confident pheasant strolled right past my favourite bench at RHS Harlow Carr. Maybe he was looking for a partridge in a pear tree?

One for Greek mythology nerds - from Paphos, Cyprus. When a mosaic is so detailed that you can see their emotions: ‘Hippolytus looks embarrassed while reading his stepmother, Phaedra’s, love letter. She anxiously awaits the young man’s reaction.’
