Catching the Light

Astilbe in Celia and Iain's garden in Shropshire.

A long day on the road.   Poole to Birmingham, returning Ruth.  Her Mum arrived from Norwich just as we arrived and shortly after Jamie arrived by train from Poole.   I walked Meg while the others chilled at Ruth's then it was Birmingham to Shropshire where we had a lovely meal and a mooch round the garden.  Finally Shropshire to Tywyn, arriving at 11pm, still orange embers in the north-western sky.   Almost 300 road miles.   It's been a lovely break, finger incident notwithstanding.   Nice to be home too.
