Good morning everyone! So that was a weirdly spring-like weekend. We absolutely enjoyed the balmy temperatures but I couldn’t help feeling a nagging “we’re all going to pay for this later”  sense of eventual of doom. But nevermind!

Brrrr. Finally a properly chilly December morning. There was even frost on the cars as I snuck out of the house at 6am for yoga.

Good morning everyone! It was such a nice weekend. Okay perhaps a little too nice for early December.

The summer has officially come to an [...]

It’s really [...]

People I am so sorry but I just can’t stop myself. The quite-literally hellish weather has been the main topic of conversation and I fear the heat wave will continue to torment us for days to come. It makes us all miserable, sweaty conversationalists who can do nothing but complain and whine. It was the [...]
