GD Kate recently came back from a week in Disneyland and brought me some lovely tea.
Creamy Earl Grey deserves to be sipped from a proper tea cup.
This tea cup is made by Sadler and the pattern is Worthington. I call it Christmas Rose which sounds far nicer to me. I have 6 cups and saucers in this pattern.
Our weather has been one of rainy days with fairly pleasant days in between storms. We have been able to walk. Not as far as we used to do but it's lovely getting out and enjoying Autumn.
The swans are back at Willband. We saw some taking off from the lake and others still on the water. Unfortunately we also saw a dead one. Many Canada Geese are also dying of avian flu. Migratory birds, especially water fowl, are the primary carriers of the virus. It seems to happen every year and there is no way of avoiding it. Sooner or later a poultry farm will catch it and their entire flock will have to be put down. Bad luck for the farmers.
Apparently the virus can affect humans but it doesn't happen often. Or so we're assured.
