Urban beauty


Even today's drizzling grey sky didn't diminish this little bit of urban loveliness when I popped round to the corner shop.


I have no idea what this bright orange creeper is but, every year, it blooms over a shabby shed and turns it into something that makes me smile every time I walk past.


Made running out of milk this morning a good thing.

  7. I remember this from my parents' garden. The colour is beautiful against that rusted iron and brick. Your last shot is spectacular
