Today: Autumn largely declares itself under my feet as we crunch over a carpet of beech nut cases (actually quite sore) conkers, crab apples and acorns. A cooler day, with some soft clear sunlight emerging around lunchtime.

Despite a monstrously large quantity of packets, an emergency stop on the way out to the delivery, and the larger walking day the delivery feels easy and I am feeling better than I have in weeks.

Happy to be outside delivering.
