A warmer, drier day. A busy Wednesday, council tax letters galore. Noticing pinks.

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.




Another beautiful spring day. We have three of us and we zip through the delivery despite a heavy delivery day with water bills, mother’s day cards and presents.
I enjoy the shadows of the Bossier’s glory-of-the-snow, the play of light through the doors in Arundel Court, and the crocuses




A temporary return to drizzle today. Shaun gallantly cycles out with my forgotten (partially)waterproof jacket.
More brown council envelopes land on our frames today lowering the mood. Mother’s day on the horizon so expecting a busy end of week.
Noticing all the new growth and the progress of the japonica at 51 Mount Pleasant.



Finally the rain stopped, a dryish but cold day, fingers are split and sore. Still overcast. Noticing flowers, mini Irises, this Wonkeresk bush at 10 Lime tree Rd and new growth leaves.




Yesterday’s deluge continued, colder and windier today. Towards the end of the delivery the clouds lifted and the sun broke through. Flowers and blossoms sprung open and I was noticing colour all around. My eye was drawn to newly unfurling bushes.
Feeling like we deserve a drier delivery day tomorrow but the forecast predicts more rain !



A deluge of mail and rain. We worked overtime to finish, delivering all soggy and damp.
I enjoyed the bubbling puddles and all the raindrop decorated foliage.



Some sun, not warm. A pop of pink, a forlorn lost mitten, a magnolia blossom poised.
A light mail day, only 17,000 steps. 10,000 less than the walk last Thursday.




The sun finally came out and all looked beautiful. Blossom filled trees glowed with light against the blue sky. The warming sunlight was bright and low, transformed the delivery from a chore into a pleasure.
All was moist and sparkly.
