Out on Delivery: Thu 12 Oct
Today: A drizzly damp day. Snails, slugs and raindrops abound. Another large quantity of parcels but with the longer delivery day we get it all delivered.
Excited to be taking photos with my new iphone.
Out on Delivery: Mon 9 Oct
Today: A glorious year for berries. October is not disappointing this year, warm, sunny and the trees are still leaf filled, just touches of colour change and berries and fruits abound.
Out on Delivery: Fri 6 Oct
Today: Delicate white blooms in the endlessly beautiful garden at 26 Ipswich Road: I love how some leaves change colour in patterns, been keeping an eye on this wild bush in Plantsman’s Close which always puts on a spectacularly colourful autumn display, and spotted these first leaves to turn: The beautiful dancing leaf shadows caught my eye here in Newmarket Road: Photo collage based on Suffolk Square.
A beautiful clean light day, oodles of packets and heavy bundles of mail, but a pleasure to be walking and working again with my colleague Wayne.
Out on Delivery: Wed 4 Oct
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.
Out on Delivery: Tue 3 Oct
Today: Hips, Walpole Street: Oak leaf, Newmarket Road: glass patterns, Arundel court: Photo collage based on Suffolk Square.
Busy for a Tuesday, volumes starting to build. A cooler fresher day, started thinking about trousers…
Lucky not to get wet, it looked deeply ominous at one point, but stayed dry.
Delighted to have Newmarket Road open again at junction of Christchurch and Lime Tree. Happy to be working alongside Wayne, a cheerful hard working colleague.
Out on Delivery: Sat 23 Sep
Today: A fresh but sunny day’s delivering, after having an extra person on the delivery with us yesterday we have a manageable amount of mail and have a smooth efficient morning’s delivering.
Collage is based on the courtyard outside Walpole Gardens
Out on Delivery: Wed 20 Sep
Today: A mountain of packets/parcels, I struggle to fit it all on my frame as I sort. We struggle to move round the mail filled office and talk is of how will we cope when Christmas arrives.
Out it is overcast but warm and blustery again. We work hard and manage to get all delivered, just, in our longer Wednesday shift.
Out on Delivery: Tue 19 Sep
Today: A blustery day, the first for a while. I enjoy being buffeted until I remember that Kelly was hit by a falling branch whilst out on delivery and the twisting trees take on a more sinister aspect.
A lot to deliver for a shorter Tuesday but Elliott distracts with his quality conversations and by sharing the driving load.
Streets are starting to fill with leaf debris and squashed fallen conkers.
