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 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 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.

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

Out on Delivery: Fri 8 Mar

A glory of a spring day, a Japanese Pieris with little translucent dots inside, a Bossiers glory-of-the-snow catching the sunlight in Newmarket Road and a the magnificent plum tree at 97 glowing in the sunlight.

Perfect conditions to cover the 20k needed to deliver all the mail today on walks 206 and 211. Finished on time 🙂

Today: Blossom, 51 Mount Pleasant: Tiny fungi growing at the bottom of a wall, Christchurch Rd: Line of blossom flowing down the road, Mount Pleasant.

A wet day, not fiercely raining, but raining. All is green and moist and blossom filled puddles and rivulets catch my eyes.

Today: A photo collage featuring, Wessex street, berries and fluffy foliage.

An eventful day, an uncharged van, a “lost” elderly gentleman, more than 120 parcels to deliver on top of the mail. We do our best but time runs short with trays of tracked items to deliver. A difference of working styles clash and I finished the day rattled.
