Colours of Autumn...

It's only been the last couple of days that I have noticed the leaves on the trees beginning to change colour.  The Horse chestnuts were first and then the sycamores began to go, a lot of the others are still hang in onto their greenery.  I particularly liked the vivid colours of this tree against the beautiful blue sky today.

I had a lesson this morning in the next stage of my progression towards conducting funeral services.  Our local crematorium (One of them!) has had a refurb - all irrelevant to me as I've never been responsible for taking the whole service and pressing the right buttons at the right time.  On Monday I am going solo for the first time so it was important for me to know what to do.  Think I will be ok.  Very important to get it right for the family concerned...
