I was delighted to see a bee sleeping on a flower in the chapel grounds this month, one which I call Fox-and-cubs. Although a professional gardener friend warned me about its propensity to spread, I think our graveyard a suitable place for it. The bee certainly had no complaints.
And the building of the wall of it was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass. (Rev. 21:18)
My photograph of Strathaven Trinity Church in South Lanarkshire manages to omit its most remarkable feature- its spire, which its own website, naturally, depicts with pleasure. Whether I photographed it and it never saved, or the day, being wet, persuaded me to take my leave before taking my best pictures, I do not know.
