Mishap

This morning about 05:00 my friend and neighbour next door but one was awakened with an unusual noise. Opening the curtains she saw that a limb of the enormous beech tree outside her house had fallen. It blocked the road and the pavement but fortunately didn't do any damage to people or property. She contacted the local authority and at 06:00 someone came out to clear the pavement. By about 10:00 there was a squad with chain saws and a chipper clearing the big branches from the road. So well done Stirling Council for swift action. 

The trees outside our houses are beautiful but old and probably too big for an urban street. I don't know what the future holds for them. 

A day at home for me till yoga tonight. It's not quite as warm as it was over the weekend but still delightful for being in the garden.
