Sunday 2 November

Today dawned brighter than of late, and the five different variety of tits continues to flutter around the bird feeders in the garden. The mercury gradually rose to about 14C / 57F, also much higher than yesterday's chilly 8C / 46F. Family arrived at 9.30 a.m. to join us in the commemorative church service, which went well. Both scripture readings and hymns and psalms were appropriate for the occasion.

After a very good lunch, we also went to the cemetery. Family returned home at 4pm, and as I'm typing this darkness falls - it's now 5.10pm. Quite a contrast to when I left here in late July, with darkness setting in at that time at 10pm.
