This morning we drove to Hertfordshire to my Mum's old house where we'll stay for a couple of nights so  we can visit my ailing aunty again. This afternoon we  visited aunty F who is becoming weaker and more tired but she was pleased to see us.  She is being very well looked after by a team of excellent carers and her  friends visit regularly, so I think her situation is as good as we can hope for. 
The blip is my Mum's garden where the trees have lost a lot more of their leaves since I was here a month ago.
