We could do with a little light at this time of year. A little bit of summer in winter. So I'm flicking back through 2018, seeing what summer I have stashed for the winter months.
After the works on the tow-path this year, they put down wildflower mix in the disturbed earth. This patch was blooming in an area that had been torn to muck by heavy works vehicles.
One sunny morning, I found unusual bees on the ivy flowers on the tow path. With their pointy abdomens, sharp stripes and fluffy puffer jackets, they looked like a couture take on honey bees, taking in the best elements of hover fly and wasp. They turned out to be Ivy Bees, a recent arrival in the country from mainland Europe enjoying our warmer autumns.
On a day of September rain, we found light and warmth in the London Design Bienniale 2018. The rough/smooth tiles are made of polished coal; the pink thing is a tiny greenhouse.
One sunny day, I was in an unfamiliar railway station for a few minutes. Inbetween trains, I spotted the far wall growing a fern garden:
