We have a solitary horse chestnut tree in our front garden. Most years we collect a few but this year it has excelled and so far we have collected over 450 and it's not empty yet. We've never managed to collect more than this bowl will hold before but I think we might just do it this year.

It is Sunday afternoon. There are certain things that need to be done on a Sunday afternoon. One of these is to sit on the sofa and watch crap TV. I'm currently doing this from between two wet dogs. This is not ideal.
