With the latest coronavirus rules and lockdown changes in place life can feel very limited and quite gloomy at the moment.

One small thing we can do to lift our spirits is to take advantage of and comfort in the natural world around us and appreciate the glory of an English Autumn.  This photo is from @tootingnewsie on Twitter of Tooting Common.  We are blessed in this area with our Commons; Tooting, Wandsworth, Streatham, Clapham and Wimbledon right on our doorstep.

I looked for ideas for local parks and gardens to visit, some of these are easily accessible by public transport, others may require a car:
