This is a colour scheme. I did this. This is what it's about, this is the Thing I DO. I don't do it well any more. But I do it with my whole chest, always. I think you can tell.

Here are the tools I used today. A very light Spear & Jackson border fork - with the most useful hand tool I've ever owned threaded through its handle. A double headed Chillington Hoe with the long handle, superb tool.

COME AT ME BRO.

Leopard print wedge crocs, woolly boot socks, and utterly muddy black leggings. Hashtag Hot Nonbinaries In Your Mentions. And when I say "hot", let's be real, I just mean sweaty.

Anyway, here's one of my favourite sea views: you don't realise it's coming at all, and then suddenly the jabber of rooves breaks and: "O!" and right by the backs of your knees at that exact instant, you find a little bench to sit and gaze. So you do.

Apple blossom and young leaves, against a blue sky

A marvellous lichen on an apple branch

Another, quite different apple lichen

Apple branches in bloom against a sky patterned with cloud in a way that almost looks like elephant skin.

Meanwhile, walk with me a bit.
