The train stopping in the buttercup fields

While I don't relish the thought of going back to work, I do enjoy organising to go back to work. The last few weeks has been a happy unstructured affair of late rising, jeans and Birkenstocks; today I ironed frocks, sorted neat blouses and packed my new bag. I also decided, no matter what I choose to wear, that these shoes have waited long enough to make their debut. 

Where one fern was always green

We've had our fair share of rain this week, now it's hot and humid. Everything was green today.
