Autumn at last

Beautiful autumn is finally here. London's unexpected warm spell (Tshirts? In October?!) meant that the trees held onto their leaves for a little longer, and late rhododendrons and flower buds were still poking through a couple of weeks ago, as if to say 'Is that you spring?'.

 

Wintry England finally got its act together last weekend when the trees were dumping great hoards of leaves on the ground in panic. I drove to a woodland in the north for a wander. Just me, and about 2000 families and their dogs.  

Thankfully, once we were out in the woods, all was still and calm. Turns out there was enough autumn gorgeousness for all of us. 

 Also,  my Etsy is now up and running! Come over and say hi.
