The latest Video Diary supplement is now online in which the autumn leaves are falling and creating a gloriously colourful carpet to walk on.
It was shot around 10 this morning and within 20mins the heavy rain that was forecast hit us. It is still pouring down now.

Definitely another very enjoyable tour this afternoon. Soon after I made the most of a calm spell in our weather and removed the spent Crocus flowers! Curiously, even though our climate is wetter than that in Aberdeen, the old flowers do not seem to suffer botrytis here. I suspect it's so windy that there is constant and excellent natural ventilation so they are simply desiccated before the moulds can take hold. I'm not complacent though and still remove them.

So funny - Ian  hesitates  as he  calls a plant "narcissus" - it clearly is not - he catches himself and says- as if for final definition,    " not Narcissus,   snowdrops, galanthus,  -   narcissus are  yellow , galanthus are white ......  "  ah yes, thus spake the expert!
