An absolutely beautiful morning today, though a good ten degrees cooler than this time last week. Winter is coming on rapidly, but if I get gorgeous sunlit fields and woods like I did this morning, I can cope with my ears getting a bit cold. Poppy The Labrador also had a very good ball this morning that she was very excited to show me.

I had an excellent time at Denny Library on Saturday as part of their first Book Blether event. Here I am chatting to the audience. It's a lovely space.
