Flowers, green hills, a breath of fresh air.
After storm Clara last weekend, it’s time for storm Dennis to give our fence another test of strength. I didn’t need much of an excuse to stay home today as I was already feeling pretty grumpy from still being ill.
With the house admin complete it was time to make some reading headway whilst listening to the house potentially moving three feet to the left due to the wind…
Another long walk today! This time is was seven miles with Corinne. We went for a muddy walk through Sydenham Hill Woods. Followed by lunch in Dulwich Village with Mariana in tow. I could get used to weekends like this.
Nic and I set off on a mission today to find the park from the puzzle map I’ve been working on! We found it, and met some friendly ducks in the process (and two less friendly swans). We ended up walking and nattering for 10 miles! It’s been a really nice day.
I ran my first 5k since summer’s heel injury and I feel great! Tired, but in a wonderful way. I had the day off today before heading back to London this evening – it’s been such a nice weekend being with my mum and sister (and today my nephew). I’m even more excited for Christmas now.
With the blustery trees and moody London lighting, outside felt exceedingly creepy tonight. One of those evenings I’m pleased I didn’t have to walk back from the train station too late…
I’ve had a wonderfully charming day with my mum today. We went out for an gorgeous Italian lunch in Crystal Palace then meandered to Norwood Lakes, constantly nattering the entire way all the way.
It’s been such grim weather in London recently and this weekend was no expectation. Nic and I ventured out today to pop to the shop with a small detour home through the park. Check out these damp mushrooms we found!
