Paniculata

A good day.  I spent most of the morning making final arrangements for a holiday and marvelling at what can be done with the internet.  The highlight was buying tickets for a gallery in Rome.  The site was all in Italian so I had to cut and paste lots of phrases for online translation.  I don't suppose I'll find out whether I have really been successful until we arrive ....
Then the service engineer pronounced our septic tank in good health.  Makes me proud.
And the hydrangea paniculata is just gorgeous.
