I am feeling very old.......

......I received this road atlas the other day from the AA and was a little shocked. How can I, a mere slip of a thing, have been a member for fifty years, it can't be right. I think I will have to go and lie down with a very large scotch.

Meanwhile on the beach the Horned Poppies are flowering away in all their glory. The little one is in a dry area, as one might expect, and is doing its best after
being nibbled by the rabbits.

This big one is growing in a damp patch and is doing very well
indeed. I did worry a bit as I thought it might rot off as they are plants of dry sandy areas but not this one. It just keeps flowering and forming seed pods.
