Flowering shrub

We seem to have lost the label, but I think it is Escallonia - in which case it is definitely flowering out of season.

It's been another very grey day.  W has finished the post box - he's been struggling to get the door to fit as neatly as it should - and oiled it - it looks lovely.  I went to the gym and the supermarket.  The last three days have flown by - back to work tomorrow!
