Late Summer


Summer holidays have been restful with days out and walks in the countryside.....



I have seen electric blue dragonflies, woodpeckers and a kingfisher with his distinctive blues and oranges.

I have watched films:

The Way, Way Back
Nebraska
Saving Mr Banks

Had a day trip to Brighton with teenage boy...



We found the Buddhist Centre and knocked on the door in hope of a cup of tea - we weren't disappointed, they invited us to use their kitchen and make our own!  We were shown round the centre and found it has a library of books on meditation.  This was a real find, we talked about mindfulness and sipped tea before moving on to....


the beach - we walked along the West pier end up to the shops and had falafel wraps for lunch at our favourite supermarket, Taj Mahal International Foods (we also brought back our favourite Baclava dessert for hubby).  This is the food we love the best, we also come here for olives as there is a huge choice, their flatbread selection is also vast and very affordable.

I am still in the middle of decorating the house, might show you a bit when it's finished, right now there are paint pots everywhere, half sewn curtains and an untidy garden to sort out so I will be back when I catch up.
