Volatility

End of October is when we can expect blustery, volatile conditions. No storms here, but one minute can be very different to another. A bit of sun brings out the colour in bracken, looking better than many a herbaceous border.


Soon after we're soaked by wind driven squalls and only the welcome shelter of a beautiful young oak saved us from more.

Why would anyone want to walk on treeless Burbage or Wimble Hole Hill when Blacka rewards us so well? I've even sheltered under bracken at odd times - not as strange as might be thought.


In time all settles down.
