Big Tom


No 1 Daughter called round a couple of days ago with grandson Thomas in his new "School Uniform" - Can't believe how grown-up he looks at three and a half! He is going to be a big lad.

It also gave me a chance to get a photograph of my favourite Japanese Maple in its Autumn glory. The last few years I have left taking a photograph too late and the next time I took the camera out all the leaves had dropped. I refer to it as a 'bonsai' that is not strictly true as bonsai means 'planted in a tray' and this is actually planted in a plant pot! It is however around 10 or 12 years old so it is stunted in true Japanese fashion.

Nothing stunted about Tom though. With a bit of luck he will be carrying me around in a couple of years
