A prosaic day fixing the shower.
Pouring outside - otherwise I'd have loved to get outside again.

It's so good to get outside.
Ridiculously mild here yesterday, a high of 16°C and no rain - so also did a short walk around the lovely NT Kedleston Hall.
The trees are just glorious.
Hope you got the house stuff sorted.

The Holly Bush Inn, Makeney, Derbyshire.
Fabulous ancient inn on the medieval Derby-Chesterfield coach road.
Authentic rather than smart, and very popular.
It was the last day of their October beer festival.
Saturday was sunny so we walked over there & stumbled back (it's an hour or so from home).

It's very autumnal here now; temperatures have dipped.
Getting the odd lovely sunny day - Saturday was perfect for a pub walk.

Fabulous Tuesday here - but it started at only 2 degrees.
Someone has thrown the Autumn switch and there's no going back.

Good morning Mushen.
Might get to do the rest of the local scarecrow trail if the weather holds up. There were far more than expected.
Hope you get used to the mattress, it usually takes me a while.

I always love your window onto the Thames, Patricia (thank you).
All good, just arrived in Jerez, Spain, for a much needed break.
I hope you and yours are well too.

That's amazing! It's great when you get something memorable like that at such a great price.
The trouble with staying in tourist places is you get a pretty standardised tourist menu.

Made it to Brăc Island off Split in 2023 - beautiful island. Loved visiting stunning Split (the old town is a must see) and Hvar town (below).
The ferry journeys were fun too.
Definitely want to go back to Croatia and Dubrovnik is top of my list.

We went to outdoor theatre, and it was really very good - didn't even rain on us - well, only a few spots.

There's quite a celebratory feel at the summit. It's also many degrees cooler than the countryside around and there's a great view towards the Alps.

Saw a hornet the size of a small aircraft when were over there a couple of months ago.
Not sure what type.

With the exception of "Rush", most F1 films are pretty clichéd imv.
This is no exception, but it's still very entertaining. Clever too how they spliced the story into a recent F1 season.
