Friday November 3rd

 To borrow a word from the weather forecasters - changeable. Dizzyingly changeable in fact. It is perhaps the essential characteristic of British weather and the result of living on a little island buffeted from all sides. 

Walking through it on a regular basis only serves to emphasize that changeability, not to say unpredictability, and not least because that old saw about no such thing as bad weather only the wrong clothes is confirmed every day: peer out of the window, open the door and take a sniff.......warm coat?.... waterproof coat?....scarf?.....shirtsleeves?

Herewith a sample of daily delights, whatever the weather:






















The most stand out thing from yesterday`s soggy walk in the woods is the way the relatively mild but very wet weather has resulted in an abundance of fungi......some I don`t think I`ve ever seen in there before.  Beautiful `fairy-tale` mushrooms:

but these were my absolute favourites......  
...................................if there aren`t sprites of some sort involved I`d be amazed. 😉
