October, rugby season and visits and trips.

I went to watch Oti in his first rugby match at his school beat Burford 8/2. As Rob says the boys all look the same BUT in the third pic Oti is standing right in the front on the right.
Autumn is upon us. 
What about this beautiful though quite scary caterpillar. The spike is at the back I think.
It is a pale tussock.
One year since we planted the River Garden.
With our warming climate there are plants flowering now which of course previously would not have, like weigela, hellebore and geums coming out again.

A snowy Canada.
Went to a writers' and poets' meeting in Cirencester and trying to get something positive done with my songs.  Can't believe they are worthless.
Have found 95 of the 100 little ducks.
This stunning tree on the way back from Cirencester.
Apple day in Quenington. We took one Waitrose bag of apples and came away with about 8 litres of juice.
We had Heath's birthday cake early. 
as the family have gone to the game farm in SA for half term.
This photo is reminiscent of those taken in the early years of cars when people lined up in front of theirs. There are photos in our family like this going back about 100 years.
Been a very busy month. Oxford ceramic fair gave me a Barry Stedman.
A Matthew Blakeley
A small bowl from the Jelfs
