Victorian cemeteries and gardens do occasionally go hand in hand. Yesterday the gardening club travelled to Scarborough, meeting on the way mist turning into fog from the coast but no rain. Gloomy and atmospheric was the cemetery, the garden bit was the long ravine that travels down to the sea, we only went part way along it the trees on either side towering above us like a rain forest. They are careful not to cut down the trees because leaving a funnel for the wind will destroy others.

It certainly looks a grey day. How different it would look in bright sunshine.
ReplyDeleteAlmost didn't go, but the person who arranges the outing was taking us in her car, so I thought it would be rude not to go, especially as someone else had cried off. Anyway it was good, they provided tea and plants the staff and everyone was happy.
