Lucienne Day with cairn terrier Megan, 1990s

While Robin was away in the mountains, Lucienne deepened her knowledge of plants on botanical trips all over Europe.

In later years the Days began to spend more time at the West Sussex cottage, where Lucienne worked in the garden while Robin split logs for the woodburning stove. At the end of the century they moved from Cheyne Walk to a town house in Chichester, which gave them much easier access to their beloved cottage.
