TimeSlip...

Definitely felt like Autumn this morning walking Bella. The leaves off the trees adorned this car so tastefully.
Nipped out to do a bit of shopping and saw this traffic cone from yesterday.  I despair of the linguistic abilities of Council employes - "doning" indeed!  What's wrong with "donation" or "giving"?
With all our plans for being away over the next year, we have decided that we cannot do justice to our allotment site (we'll put some small beds in our back garden - which gets sun from March to September -instead). So today we went and started clearing up our stuff, Su harvesting some nice produce in the process.
The reward for our labours was  a dim sum lunch in Bristol.
The restaurant is decorated in stereotypical fashion...
Afterwards, I took Bella out for another walk, and came across one of BT's Infinity boxes - bit like a Tardis to hold so much!
On the way back home, I was struck by the interplay between not-yet-dusk and street-lamp light
Tonight, the clocks go back but this will add to our sense of disorientation. As well as coping with Infinity this week, just last Saturday we put our watches back two hours - now we gain another hour! As Steve Miller sang on "Fly Like An Eagle", "Time keeps on slippin',slippin' - into the future"
