Hi, Shelley and those to follow! Delightful morning, presently 26 C (78 F) with bright sun, officially Autumn but Summer's hanging tough, may make 33 C this afternoon Wish it would continue. Another no errand day, got the chores out of the way and just pottering. Nice that Malaika was gentler with the older dog. Hope it's a good day for all..... |

Hi Shelley and Eileen and all. Been a very showery day here, heavy ones when they come too! Managed to dodge most of them, they seemed to fall when I was driving, after they cleared it was bright and warm. Took Ceri to the Day hosp. and set about doing my chores today. Collected Ceri at 3pm and dashed to the school for Tom by 3.15, phew! Out tonight for a curry with my SIL and friends at the Cinnamon Tree about 7 miles away. |

Hi Shelley, Eileen and PP! It bucketed down here too this morning so OH and I started our R&R with a trip to Homebase and the tip! By then it was only light drizzle, so we were brave and walked around the east side of Chidham along the foreshore and sat looking over the water and the boats to have our sandwiches. Walked back via footpaths and some road, which was very quiet. Saw some lovely waterfront houses (hate to think how much they would cost) and some lovely orchards, laden with apples. About three or four stalls outside houses selling various varieties of apples and one tray of pears outside a house with a sign "Please help yourselves"! We have promised to go back in the Spring and see the trees in blossom - a very rare picture these days, apple orchards. Certainly in this area they've all been grubbed out for house building. We got home in the dry too! |

Evening all. Normal day for me, work and then home - just did a exercise DVD and feel shattered!!! LOL I am finding I either need some motivation or a challenge now with exercise, or perhaps it is just the time of the year. Have a good evening all. |

I was tempted by the pears, but we have a load of apples already. May have to go back as I noticed as we were driving home that one stall had damsons for sale. It's such a beautiful area and only about 3 miles from where we live. |

Afternoon, all. Funny you mention apples, we just picked two off our tree yesterday, K said his tasted good but mine's still waiting for me in the fridge. I'm so happy it's fall. Today it is windy and overcast--just holding my breath to see if it will rain. I have some books due on Saturday so wondering if I should make a library trip today when it's less busy but not sure if it will rain on me. There's something truly wonderful about being inside curled up with a book nice and warm listening to the raindrops on the roof.. Started a bit of a clean last night and will probably just finish up what I started today. Looks like a good reading day and inside weather. Maybe I'll fire up the fireplace for ambiance. It's 58 outside so not terrible I just like the atmosphere of a fireplace on. Hope you all have a good one. |

Lucky you, Tink, I didn't know you had an apple tree! When I was in high school there were 3 apple trees on campus which we were absolutely forbidden to touch ... so of course sneaky apple stealing happened; stolen apples DO taste sweeter. Hadn't thought of that in years. 58 outside? I'd have the heat on! I'm enjoying Summer's last hurrah here: made 91 today Does your library let you renew on lin? I had to do that during the blizzards in February. |

I guess I'm a true Washingtonian now because I still think 58 is not too bad Gone are the days of being a California girl. My library does let me renew online--however, these three books I've already renewed twice so they won't let me do it again as someone must be waiting in line for them next |
