Still Hanging In There.....!

Almost all the colour is gone in the garden but my James Galway rose is still blossoming...it's definitely one of my favourite roses..it just keeps on giving and giving and I've cut it back twice this year because it got so big..also we had a run-in with ex-Hurricane Ophelia a couple of weeks ago and although we didn't fare too badly here in the East of Ireland..th wind did snap a few branches of the rose..I was really afraid it would be up rooted but thankfully not...!
I had a very nice lunch out today with a friend...and then went to meet her daughters new baby...4 weeks old....so cute..!
