Sara and Josh are safely home in Brisbane, I wonder what Josh is telling his friends - apart from the steak and chips tales. When I asked him about his impressions, it was the vegetation and green-ness that he immediately listed. Even in this drought. He'd requested driving down a road where the trees met overhead, easily achieved in Norfolk. Unknown in Brisbane and environs. The roads are wide there, trees set well back. Sara was horrified by the state of Norfolk roads and their lack of width. Gower's roads were even narrower, with high banks and hedges. Both she and the hire car survived unscathed.
We've put the moth trap out every night since our return and attended a group meeting at Foxley Woods on Tuesday and Cley on Thursday.
We've had some lovely moths, with some new for the year.

It's actually rained at last. It started yesterday and we've continued to have some much needed showers to-day.
To-day was plannned as an all day birding trip along the north coast. But.......... We
got home from Gower to find that the full length, shower glass screen had shattered all over
the stairs, landing, bathroom and both bedroom doorways. Steve was there
within an hour, cleaning it up for us and, he's putting the
replacement in to-day. So, I've had a busy admin day, catching up with emails mainly. Looks like a Monday trip now.
