Pavements carpeted with colourful leaves after the nights heavy rain. Temperatures have plummeted and I am layered up.
After a couple of cold drizzly hours delivering it stops raining, much appreciated. We get it all delivered and I am happy once home warm and dry.
An overcast warm Autumnal day. Enjoying all the fallen leaves and the spooky house decorations.
Customers chatty and parcels not too numerous.
Peaches and I take a break in the cafe, a very civilised morning delivery. So used, now, to working at breakneck speed it feels different but good to have time to do job well.
An annoying start to the day with a colleague having take the van key home and forgotten to return them. Luckily the weather is warm and dry so not a strain to have to wait at the van to reload.
A lovely customer leaves a bar of chocolate as a thank you for our collecting his parcels.
A good day.
A sunny start with the threat of rain building during the day. Working with James who knows the walk well so relaxed delivery day. Autumn colours starting to show more, all damp and glistening.
Another sunny day, a lighter day so I have time to stop and photograph the texture on this door in Gladstone Street that I enjoy each day.
Some autumnal colours coming in Earlham Rd over a bin store. A spot with little light but this bush is ploughing on.
In Denbigh street a small tomato bush has self seeded itself by a gate. A handful of tomatoes hang and I am routing for them to ripen. I enjoy the determined plants that grow spontaneously in unpromising situations.
Today: Noticing textures, another overcast and cooler day. Summer over.
A lighter Tuesday delivery day.
A wet Monday morning’s delivering. All is wet, as are we, by the end of the delivery.
Noticing the autumnal colours and spiders…
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.
