This morning my greenhouse smells wonderful, that is because when I
prune/trim herbs and Lavender I throw the clipping`s on to the floor and
although it looks untidy the smell as you walk about is well worth it.
In a sheltered corner I found some Hollyhocks just coming into flower,
and as I was sitting there thinking - as you do :-) - a Kestrel flew
down onto the lawn. A good morning so far I think.

Well here, we have fantastic winter colour on the Cornus (as expected),
Passiflora and Fuchsia still flowering, Lobelia in baskets at the back
is going strong as ever, and with a bit of rain, everythings looking
good, if autumnal.

Saw a Jay and a Woodpecker at the allotments yesterday. Yep,.. its
pretty good.
