Winkworth Arboretum

I finally managed to get out about lunchtime today, and headed off for Winkworth Arboretum.. haven't been for a while.


So first port of call, was the cafe for an excellent fruit scone!  The scones at Winkworth are alway 5 Star, so well done the baker !! and thank you.

And then just a general wander.. the Autumn colour is just beginning and will be much more over the next few weeks..

Three Cormorants up in their usual tree.. but picture taken against the sun!

Glorious sunshine and so warm.. a lovely wander in one of my favourite local places

Guildford Caste & Winkworth Arboretum

Went into Guildford for shopping today and paid a visit to Guildford Castle. weather was dull but with the very occasional glimpse of the sun.

and by the time I'd finished my shopping I was getting hungry so headed over to Winkworth Arboretum for a bit to eat.

It was very wet and given the steep hill that is the Arboretum and it was getting into the afternoon, I confined my walk to a short distance along the top.

The Daffodils were in flower and cheery to see

It's getting cold again and the forecast for the forthcoming weekend is for very very cold winter conditions again.. I can't wait for the Spring.. I don't like winter..
