The tall trees by Christ Church still proudly wear their lofty, leafy, verdant crown of summer, but like grey strands appearing in a person's hair, the first, few copper leaves have made their appearance.
Late summer on stage, Lady Autumn waits patiently in the wings.

Off out shortly for weekend of #ScienceFiction fun at @cymerafestival , two and a bit days of excellent authors in the Pleasance and hopefully catching up with some old chums. I'll also be onstage on the Sunday chairing an event with Mike Carey, Ever Dundas & Dave Cook.

Interesting piece on the Romans in #Scotland https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-65388673
I've always been aware of this history, as the town I grew up, on the edge of Glasgow, was a major fort on the Antonine Wall. Got young me interested in history, learning that it didn't all happen "far away", but also on my doorstep.

Naturally I paid my respects to Desperate Dan and Minnie the Minx while in #Dundee . I was fortunate enough to be friends with Minnie's dad, Leo, so I had to introduce myself to her.
I miss swapping emails with Leo. He'd be delighted his Amazonian warrior girl lives on.
