A morning sorting listening to rain drum on the roof. Miraculous it stopped as we arrive on delivery and the sun spent as much time out as behind the clouds.
The rain had left beautiful puddles on Suffolk Square walkways, which I have used in today collage.
Another overcast ominously dark day, which only delivered a few spit spots if actual rain. The quietest day of the year, volume wise, and we managed to complete the whole larger walk !
An exquisite orange rose caught my eye in Kimberly. Lower light levels allow the flower colours to shine.
Today: A humid hug of a day, Heavy on packets but lighter on letters. Noticing all the big Hollyhocks, found some exquisite ones in Hanover Road. Watching, again this year, the amazing tomato plants grown at a house in Harford Manor Close. They start as seedlings in the window and now line the approach to the house, all laden with green fruit of many different varieties. Inspiring.
Invited into a customers flat to see there painting projects, always a privilege to be so connected to a range of people and their everyday lives.
Today: A clarity of sunlight, all sharply defined luminosity. A busy day. An aching knee and twinging back chased away with pain killers and walking.
Today: Another cool dampness of a morning, all is summers holiday quietness and languidity.
Today: Dancing shadows, 3 Kimberley St: Leaves, Dial House: Fern, Newmarket Rd.
Last morning delivering before a summer break, a sunny enjoyable day. Delighted to find these two leaves sat so perfectly together on the ground.
Today: Sunny and hot, flowers looking splendid. The big Holly Hocks are now out, towering above me and filling the walk with colour.
Almost every call on 206, possibly planning application letters. Another big step accumulating day. Smell of roses fills gardens around the walk, feel sad at the inability to be able to capture the smell, or to be able to share the beauty. A joy.
Today: End of week tired, weather is hot and humid, although not Sunny. A heavy Saturday with plenty of parcels to deliver.
Today: A first Autumnal leaf *gulp*, always surprised by how early some leaves fall. Possibly the hot weather has adversely affected the trees.
A busier Wednesday, by the end of the day I will have walked over 30,000 steps. Lean into the day in the knowledge that tomorrow is my day off and I can rest.
