Trees starting to turn

I had a meeting over in the Law School at passed these beauties as I plodded my way there. The reds are just appearing as these should look spectacular in the next few days.

I managed to avoid an almighty downpour. It was so full on, it had the usual dramatic effect on a bit of flat roof in one of our older library buildings. It leaked through to various bits of the library, soaking carpets and furniture but amazingly missed all the book stock apart from one pamphlet box.

It always happens as drains and guttering get blocked and are not on a regular enough maintenance programme. Teams are all just stretched very thin so they end up fire fighting - or flood fighting - instead.

Areas are closed off over the weekend and a load of humidifiers are at work to hopefully make it all useable next week.

When I got home to Cully, they hadn’t had a drop of rain!
