It is no big deal, but, in case you don't know,

@ is the "at" symbol and means "at"

& is the ampersand and means "and"

I didn't find the either of the postings in the garden gallery either.

Fireweed, in absence of a photo, could you give us a description of what you perceive the problem to be that would help us to help you?

Not with the name of "More Sick pic" but with name of "A Better Exbury Pic I Hope."

Picture is slightly larger. But of only two reddened leaves.

Look here

I am not sure. Does that look as if the leaves are turning fall colors?

Fireweed, from your description there - "Took these pics today so they may only show fall color change but a month ago the leaves were very yellow and many had very thin - 1/8 to 1/16" dark red margins" - you may have been seeing water stress issues but it's hard to guess without a photo taken before your azalea began to show Fall colors. Were the veins in the leaves distinctly darker green than the leaves? That would have indicated chlorosis.

While I can't be sure given the photo size, it appears you have a somewhat dense groundcover surrounding your azalea, possibly a lamium....? Azaleas have a surface rooting habit - a groundcover planting within the root zone could be inhibiting the uptake of available water and nutrients.
