One Thousand and Ten

It was a Windy Day, apparently, ten years ago on this date. Radio 4 gave out weather warnings.  It was a Sunday.  And I began this Blog.  At the time I wrote:-

So anyway, welcome to The trees around Nunhead, for however long it lasts and whatever we discover.

One of the things I think I've discovered is that this site has become only peripherally about trees, and only slightly more about Nunhead.  A cursory look at the labels that have been used to describe the various posts indicates that there hasn't really been just one theme.  Currently the most used labels are:-

POEM

NUNHEAD

BBC

GUARDIAN

TREES

TOUR

RADIO 4

POLITICS

- so you might assume it has morphed into a literary and political Blog over time.  Well, maybe to some extent, but the sheer number of different labels suggests its content has been somewhat more diverse overall.

Not only is this the ten year anniversary of the first post (and thanks to our oldest for pointing out this was about to happen a few weeks ago), but also (drum roll)...

THIS IS THE THOUSANDTH POSTING!

That really does scare me.

It's a sunny day today, not windy at all. And there is really only one thing I can sensibly do to mark this event, and that is to post yet another picture of the back garden.   And a Tree.  In Nunhead.
