Hi.

This is not the weather the cuckoo likes but I do.


When I came home and found our front door mat covered in leaves it made me smile...it was days before I could bring myself to sweep them up.

A few of them made their way inside. I left them there for as long as I could.   


THE END.

p.s. Just dipping my toes in...still a bit chilly round here x

    When I was younger, I loved summer...the hotter the better. As I get older, chilly weather has more appeal. I love your Hardy reference.

    That's a very welcoming image, leaves on the mat. "Come in and warm up" it says.
    I am longing for the kind of summer which leaves us ready to embraceautumn and Winter's charm.

    Lovely to see you back.

    Awww, Kylie, come in - the water's lovely!
    I'm surprised a neatnik like you could bear to leave those leaves (ha!) where they were, but I agree they look gorgeous!
    Good to hear from you, hope you'll be back for good soon. xxxx

    It is supposed to be summer here in Scotland, but it feels more like autumn!

    We used to have a huge tree in our garden at home and my siblings and I used to collect big piles of leaves and just roll in them. Love the smell and sound. I miss that. We don't have many trees, they are still growing! Gorgeous photo.
