Soup, yes, definitely, root veg, also baked potatoes and closing the curtains earlier - when we 'draw' the curtains, is that open or closed?



laundered and put away all thin clothes, sandals etc, so summer is definitely over, all children back to school, or will be by next week, and the swallows have abandoned us for Africa.

Omg I just bought the ingredients for Soup lol

I'm sitting in my kitchen wearing a fleece, hugging a cup of tea, eating speculoos crunchy spread* off a spoon waiting for the downpour to stop. In early September.



*Don't try this if you're trying to lose weight as it's more addictive than anything I can remember.

Don't write summer off just yet.


Back in Sept 2008 I won a Raffle in The Clock House.


First prize was a rowing boat for 6 - 8 at Richmond.


We went out on the 20th Sept. It was a scorcher in the mid 70's

Sunshine all day.


Stopped off at the White Swan Pub in Twickenham on the way out and the way back

keeping the tide with us.

I am loving this summer. I'd hardly even noticed that it's getting dark early.


Signs it's changing - the leaves falling as I was waiting on LL the other day - took me by surprise - hot water bottle last night, bought chicken soup today and no one wanted salad with their dinner this evening.


It was very hot today (well, my office is very sunny) and then torrential rain. I love it :-)


I don't like autumn when we're not had a nice summer....it feels wrong. Not this year though.

    • What is it that makes Waitrose so special! Admittedly I have shopped a couple of times in the Orpington and Beckenham one - sometimes buying food which I cannot get else where. Their 'basic range' is not bad. Price for price and quality - M & S.
    • Sometimes a shed or other installation has to have written approval from the freeholder i.e. Southwark, Southwark has (or did have) a Leaseholder Association.   Could also come under Anti Social Behaviour Unit.
    • Love Dulwich is great but has a large step in front. We have only been weekdays at Lunch time. Maria's next to Picture House is disabled friendly. Also can reserve table in advance. We did a Sunday lunch catch up with family - there were 8 of us.
    • Hi, Thinking about  going with some friends and was just wondering if folk might like to report back please. Most importantly sound level when busy & is it disabled friendly.  Thinking on a Sunday lunchtime but don’t want a busy busy environment or loud chatter - a couple of friends could not cope. Time can be flexible, if that helps - say 2 ish to avoid above.. Thanks…
