People sit on a long row of overa dozen benches, seen on the far shore across the lake in St James's Park in London with almost leafless autumn trees behind them, and off-white buildings peeking through the gaps the distance.

Today I went to the Sainsbury wing of the National Gallery. My favourite piece of art there were the paintings of the cereal aisles.

(One for the Brits, there)

Today's word I'm fetching down from the attic is "Yuletide".

On the steps outside a theatre, four guys in their late twenties to early thirties are sitting waiting to do their next food bike delivery. Their bikes can be seen in front of them, at the bottom of the picture. They are dark-skinned with black hair, and are perhaps Asian. To their right, standing at the top of the steps, is a fair-haired much older white guy, looking at his phone.

After weeks of practice I finally managed to get a few notes out my ear trumpet.

I now realise what I've been doing wrong all this time.

I should have been playing by ear.

A young woman wearing a black coat, blue trousers, black shoes, glasses and headphones sits on a white couch-type bench, leaning her head on an arm, outside a hotel which has a large circular Christmas wreath made of interwoven pink, white, and brown leaves.

(Most people run out of space at the end. You had to forget the first letter and go back and do it later.)
A shop with the name painted in yellow letters on a green background. At the top it says, "Reaming Big Z". Below and to the left is the missing letter "D".

Jeremy Corbyn is in three pantomimes. There's the regular Parliament shenanigans, a real Christmas panto called Wicked Witches, and then there's Your Party.

"We're behind you, Jeremy!"

"Oh, no, we're not!"

My local supermarket is full of turkeys again. Parking trolleys right across the aisles, putting goods back on the wrong shelves, dropping receipts where your feet slide on them, pretending not to hear the alarm when they walk through the barriers… 😃

These packets, seen in my local supermarket, are each less than 1/4" thick. Dinner for astronauts? For extreme slimmers? Picky eaters? Although I didn't see anything nearby to give the game away, I came to the conclusion that they must be some kind of seasoning. 😄

The boughs and branches of a large peduncle oak tree hang over the footpath on which I'm walking. There are still enough leaves on it, and on the trees beyond it, to create an everyday miracle when the light of the lowering sun reflects off of the leaves.
