especially when made soggy by heavy rain
followed by a quick gargle
from the freshly filled
cat water bowl

heatwave

to all those lovely people who thought that i should cope with the UK warm days
as i was from australia, synonymous with heat and sun

today is 35deg C

the cooling air conditioner IS ON

good intentions

for those who might be wondering how many more shots there were

a few

and if anyone knows who drove the taxi combined cab which picked me up from
sydney airport and took me to manly

and in whose cab i inadvertently left a small black carry bag in which
there were a number of items important to me

including the camera with the last 2 weeks of photos

let them know the return of the bag and contents to
me, would be most appreciated

and another view of lavender

back at No 15 in Bloomsbury

preparing for another sojourn
this time for 2 weeks painting in Wales
that bed was multi purpose, sleeping, eating, watching tv, watching the view, cutting out fabric for sewing, storing goods for packing, the unpacking table, repose, respite and reviewing life in general

there is lavender in France
