Ian: shame I edited that par when I spotted the grammatical. Nice as a pome, and I do like the idea of busy Lizzies. Your band in the cactus house at the Gardens is good -- that's one of my taonga places (along with the bird gallery at the Museum with the dioramas and big stuffed things); I do hope no-one decides to "improve" it. The cactus house has has some wonderfully 60s murals of desert.
Lilith: Stunning. I find them too hard to picture usually; I will look for the big stripy grub pics. I spend a lot of time in that park.

I know that yew tree (and its friend) very well
It was for you; a chi tree? Here the other end of the park. Postcard-perfect.

Brilliant sun, hot, snow everywhere, and holly. Christmas already? Rats; wrong one.

Gudrun and Lilith: What a staunch pair! I am only about to set foot outside now.

Capture: Two Tales of a City, in reply to Gudrun Gisela,
I will let you know if our big oak has its party clothes on tomorrow -- it might be worth capturing.
