Snicket Flower

My Dear Fellow,

"Alleyway" is one of those words that has regional variations all over the place. Back in Yorkshire, it's a "snicket" but that may only be North Yorkshire (the posh part).

I spotted this little burst of sunshine, a final hurrah for summer in the snicket down the back of the lane that leads from Stockbridge to Learmonth Terrace. It is very cheery and happy and it made me smile.

It came in contrast to the rest of the day in which my "unseasonal" comments from last week seem to have finally been answered by Nature. There was FROST on the ground this morning, and the leaves are starting to turn.

Now all I need is soup & old horror movies and we will be right back on track for this time of year.
