On the scent and changing seasons
Market, mizzle and words from next door.
Finland, villages, and stirrings on the campus.
Forgetting my mask, multilingual dogs and finding greengages.
Coolness, unlost phone and a surprise in the bushes.
Short podcast, big day: German conversations, a frogmouth on Knocklofty and quite a lot in between.
Pickle and Quetsch with Friends.
Looking at a desolate regatta ground under a grey sky, and smelling the roses on the way back.

Concerning eyes, regatta bells, and blackberries .
An inspired midnight masterclass with Marina Warner and Sophie Herxheimer has restored my buoyancy after rather a grim week.
