I went to the garden centre for some bits and pieces the other day, and came home with (among other things) a yellow doronicum and some ‘Blue Chameleon’ primulas to provide instant colour on the patio. Just for balance, I also came home without the lens hood of my 100-400 lens, which somehow detached itself without me noticing until after the point at which it was too late to retrace my steps and retrieve it. This was annoying, and I was duly annoyed, but I only have to look at my news feed to have minor annoyances cast into sharp perspective. Those of us who are safe and well have many blessings to count.
