Another chilli start to a warm spring day. Sun breaking through creating great foliage shadows. New growth becoming established and all is filling with colour.
A second morning adjusting to new delivery office layout. Break the news to more of my customers that I am changing walks. A sad feeling hung over my day.
A damp busy Wednesday. The morning began with heavy rain but it lifted into occasional drizzle.
Enjoyed this two tone heather in Plantsman’s Close and the scent of this Japanese Skimmia in Lime tree road was delightful. A bright shock of orange blooms on this Darwins Barberry caught my eye.
A heaven sent day, the sun is sharp and warming. Work load is light and customers are chatty and happy.
Blossom and blooms are exquisite in the sunlight. A day that makes one glad to be alive.
Colours abound, now it is not just isolated spots of colour by whole gardens zing with yellow blooms of various sizes.
In Plantsman’s close I find some yellow pom pom blooms and I am caught by red unfurling foliage in Ipswich Road.
Driving home I notice some of the larger trees now have green leaves starting to transform the trees.
A gift of a day, strong clear light the blossom trees were singing.
A lighter Saturday, a great day to be a Postie.
A dry, warmer day. A little sun here and there. Blossom trees are really looking amazing.
Showered with blossom as we work in Mount Pleasant. Small white snow like petals flitter down. Such a quick and transient season spring.
Still delivery council tax letters, water bills and tax reminders.
A warmer, drier day. A busy Wednesday, council tax letters galore. Noticing pinks.
A rudeness of day, it rained, drizzled and damped unstintingly in wintery type temperatures. Finished the walk cold and demoralised.
Luckily the flowers and garden were there to cheer and birds sang unstintingly despite the rain !!
I got caught photographing this purple edged leafed bush by my customer who was sitting in her car watching me!! I also couldn’t resist rephotographing this clematis in Mount Pleasant which is so very exquisite.
A dull blankness of a morning, not cold, not warm, not wet, not sunny, not windy. Nothing zinged particularly, the work load light, allowing me to chat to customers. Disappointing many by sharing that I will be leaving the walk at the end of the month.
Enjoyed the magnificent scent of the white Clematis at 45 Mount Pleasant. Just heavenly.
Also loved this road sign in Ipswich Road.
