A wet start to the morning delivering. Temperatures have risen, so stayed comfortable. Spring approaching, ever more in evidence. A glistening bowl of daffodils in Avenue Road and new pink leafed growth emerging.
A lighter Monday, so time to notice and enjoy.
A bone chilly, gloriously sunny day. I spot my first opened crocus in a garden in Earlham Road. The sun makes the first tentative blossom glow.
Excited yesterday to see the first glimmers of light as I arrive at work. The sky is bruised purple and red and I can feel the possibility of spring arriving after a week of cold dark wintery weather.
A warm day, with wonderful warm autumnal light. Noticing a general reduction in flowers, a few last Roses, but many now over.
Mail and parcels are light and we fly around the delivery.
A wet Monday morning’s delivering. All is wet, as are we, by the end of the delivery.
Noticing the autumnal colours and spiders…
Today: A surprisingly wet start to the delivery. Despite the endless hot weather here in Norwich the streets were teeming with fat moist brown slugs.
Caught a photo of the random leg that has been hanging out in a garden in Earlham Road.
Rain stopped at 10am but continued to get a soaking from all the overgrown bushes and hedges on the delivery.
Working with James and we managed to get all delivered. Felt good.
A distinctly autumnal edge to the day, fresher air. Less colourful flowers about, noticing fruits and an increase in spiders…
A cooler, easier day. All passes without drama.
Quite a day, stifling hot from the start. My colleague becomes unwell and I take them back to the delivery office. I return to delivery to try to get finished what I can, but it is hard hot work.
I notice this cracked road surface in Heigham Grove road for the first time. It reminds me of ice cubes in a drink.
A post bank holiday return, less mail and more delivery time. Work with a colleague James who knows the walk and we manage to get all delivered, feels good.
A week of sunshine promised, today doesn’t disappoint.
