‘Oh, Charles, what a lot you have to learn! There’s a beautiful arch there and more different kinds of ivy than I knew existed. I don’t know where I should be without the Botanical Gardens.’

I realised that I had not visited the Dundee Botanical Garden yet this summer and my brain was a jumble that would be better for some extra green, so off I went yesterday to soothe my grinding gears of thought.

I felt much better afterward; I’m glad I took that crow’s advice!
