And still it rains. I'm beginning to wonder if it will ever stop. We watched "Autumnwatch" on BBC2 last night. Part of it was filmed in the Lake District. I cannot believe that many of the shots were taken this week. You couldn't have canoed in the sunshine. Even the few minutes when it hasn't been raining, it has been dark & brooding, not much sign of any brightness anywhere.
The bog garden is certainly more of a lake than a bog. I suspect the hydrangea has already given up the ghost. I'm just hoping, come to spring, it will pick up again. Everything else still seems to be surviving.
We're already holding onto the idea of the sunny south of France in spring to get us through the winter months. It seems set to be a long one this year. It already feels more like December than November. It was great to see a real fire blazing in our village pub yesterday.
