Sun rising on November and Tranquility Bay. Our favoured swimming beach.

October was a mixed bag, much like any month. Some sadness, huge amounts of happiness and the continued inexorable emergence from Covid restrictions, and constraints, while the virus still burns on through populations far and wide.

Just like autumn leaves, friends and family blew into our lives last month, gathering in our house and making it seem brighter and more full of colour. Some people of course continue to be kept away from us, or us from them, by the Covid restrictions that have not been lifted.

So here we are the first day of November. A month of short days, fireworks and far too early Christmas adverts. Brightly coloured leaves and decorative brassicas bring down the curtain on the first blog of the month.
