Harlow Carr...

Spent a productive morning at Harlow Carr, the RHS gardens near Harrogate, trying to capture some autumn colours. When I sat down, a robin flew onto the arm of the bench and started singing a tiny little song. The melody seemed to be for my benefit alone, because it seemed too quiet for any other creature to hear.

In Bedale now, uploading all the pix. A small market town is probably the best place to stay the night: easy to find a parking spot, free wifi and a bite to eat…
