If only this were possible! Of course the other side of Autumn is the rain and the start-of-school-year colds. At the moment I'm feeling slightly sorry for myself; partly because I have a cold but also because on a family walk over the weekend I realised that this year I won't be able to climb any trees in the annual quest for apples. I may have been slightly petulent about this realisation but we still had a lovely time. Lyra climbed the trees to reach the sadly few apples growing within reach;
She has a very sensible helmet on because she rode her bike, which she's a natural at after two weeks as a cyclist;
And we had lots of fun hunting for conkers in the grass, much to Logan's excitement and pleasure when he found several. Each time he spotted one his face lit up and he was very happy to have them photographed;
