Heya, I'm doing ok. Doing a lot of raking leaves, mostly taking them up with my lawn mower. It's that time of year.  :)

Good to know, KRonn.

But damn, now you're reminded my I've shed-load of things to do in the garden.   :D

Spending most of my spare time traveling down to the Devon/Cornwall border to visit my rather ill, very old mother; not ideal.  :(

Sorry to hear that mongers. It may not be ideal, but good for you doing it nonetheless.

Thanks Mal and Syt, it's just one of those things one has to do.

A plus is I'm seeing a lot of Dartmoor that I'd like to do some walking over, say when it's not wet, cold or dark, so say early summer 2025.

Nice.

edit:
such an atmospheric shot I saved it to MyDocoments, maybe I should start saving a few representative photos by different posters to get a wider sense of the geographical breath 'we' occupy?

I recently caught myself missing that Central European style of architecture around me.

Would be nicer with trees instead of all those cars, though. :P

I do not disagree, it looks to be a miserable street having to find parking space every evening on. :P But I don't think the solution to inner-city car overuse is to force a car-less society. :P

At the airport. Feel like I'm having flashbacks to a lifetime ago, well apart from all the face masks. :blush:

Same. There are people travelling in full hazmat suits. :lol:

I did get a better face mask at the airport, should slightly increase my chances of coming home again.

Have a safe journey, Mal.
