I've been on holiday to the marvellous île d'Oleron, thereby prolonging summer by a couple of days

The terrier in a usual haunt, sniffing smells of hunters and their dogs.
Odd that my dogs hate hunters but linger lovingly over their traces

The medlars in my garden are ready to be picked... do I have enough to make jelly?
I read a top tip *cough* elsewhere - if you freeze them it's a short cut to bletting.

Max the terrier, who hates water, actually went for a paddle here. The only other time I've seen him get his paws wet was when he mistook thick duckweed for greensward and stepped off a (very low) bridge. He swims really well, it transpired.

It is really hard being a writer these days. The industry is getting tougher all the time. You can REALLY help authors and books you love by talking about them. Word of mouth is real magic, your voice matters, it's never too small. Share your enthusiasm for books you love. And THANK YOU.
