And so yes, after the subterfuge of the last couple of days, I find myself in Sheffield, attending to a little family business.
I walked into my parents’ house yesterday, “somewhat surprising” my mother who thought I was 6000 miles away. I’d totally recommend doing this to your parents at some point if you can. It’s fun.

There was time this afternoon for a quick walk in Sheffield’s Botanical Gardens. It’s not quite Kirstenbosch, but it is free and it has a million squirrels. Despite the onset of autumn, there is plenty of colour too. I’ll get some photos up soon.
