August

As Sylvia Plath wrote, August is a time of in-betweeness, summer is on the wane and the month of September the start of Autumn is around the corner. Looking around the churchyard things are going over, turning to seed but there is still plenty to do not forgetting as Alan Titchmarsh said to find time to stand and enjoy the last flowers of summer and I did just that standing by the sweet peas enjoying their heady scent and watching the pollinators also attracted by that very same scent. Elsewhere there has been time to tidy up and our work area at the side of the church is better organised with our water butt having a couple of additions and a tool storage rack made from upcycled wood.
