Not a very wild day today, but it started well, watching the Mullein Moth caterpillar munching its way through the leaves of my brother’s plants:

The flowers are nevertheless really lovely:

In the afternoon I saw grass and deckchairs on the roof of the Ashmolean (and spotted a tree growing somewhere it shouldn’t in a neighbouring building!), explored the green heart of Wellington Square and enjoyed a gathering in a typical Oxford College quadrangle.

But the latter part of the evening was all about the weather. As we drove back to London we saw lightning over the city and the rain began in earnest.

So tomorrow’s blog is going to be all about water!
