Autumn Gales


Storm Callum is ripping through the Pinfold today and news filters through of boats being sunk on their moorings in the Menai Straits.

The newly pruned birch in the garden are now steady and safe as they are lashed by the warm, wet wind from the south. 

We wander around the garden and find it just as lovely on a wild autumn day as it is in the the early tranquility of early summer. Autumn colours are everywhere. Berries and flowers are bejewelled with raindrops and savage gusts of wind tear away the russet foliage.
