Saturday dawned misty and romantic with the promise of getting better after a whole week of murky gloom. NC was looking its best shrouded in vapour and mystery so I tried to capture the mood on my camera. Work continued to be more of the same, the herbaceous flower borders take a lot of clearing up at this time of year, but it was pleasant toil as the sun evaporated the mist and good to feel the warmth on my back, an unexpected bonus in November. All of a sudden the tranquil mood was shattered by the sound of galloping hooves as a runaway horse shot past the garden entrance, Giles was almost as quick in his response as he set off to find the thrown rider, luckily she was unharmed and the horse it transpired had returned straight back to the stables clever thing! Peace returned to the garden for the rest of the day only punctuated by the excitement of receiving my first pay check and Sir James getting a flat tyre on his push-bike. Altogether a typically ordinary but perfect day!
