Fuchsia

Spent most of today in Lanarkshire ice rink attending a coaching conference for curling.  Didn't enjoy it as we spent most of the time sitting listening to speakers rather than being on the ice picking up new ideas to try out with beginner curlers.  I was glad to eventually get home to the sun  shine.  The fuchsias are only just blooming now, but they are not very tall. I think it is due to the heavy rain we had for most of the summer, but I'm grateful for the splash of colour now.
