Those colours sound gorgeous, Hunni. I think we'd all be deeply envious of that old couple.
I have slightly stinging eyes too just now - came across an image of young soldiers marching off to war & it occurred to me that there must also have been hundreds of young Germans also leaving their families at that time, all going off to war to kill each other. We humans are slow learners.
Had a mad rush of energy earlier & mowed back lawn then zipped around to library to pick up a hold, back again for a fast coffee & then tackled the dreaded hedge. And with my stunning luck, the wretched hedge trimmer conked out half way through - lucky I did the worst side first.
So now I'm knackered & don't want to be bothered doing tea - the dog refused to do it again. No doubt I'll think of something.

in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
