Stormy Weather

... yes, but where does one wear them apart from at Hurlingham???


. I suppose Red Sea Rig is just about permissible. But only east of Suez...

I hadn't thought of cycling via Hurlingham, but now you mention it...

Fog, early morning but so far, a lovely day, saying in advance!!?? :)

Nice day, but we've just had a (very mild) earthquake.

Eeeek!

Best wishes for a calmer day, Pabs :

Thanks, Ams. There I was sitting at my desk (most of my life is spent there!) and the earth moved! Mark you, that happened at least twice during the 21 years I lived in Shropshire.

Here's where I spend most of the day:



As you see, Zach is still with us. He was 15 on July 12th (George Butterworth's birthday!).

A remarkably tidy personal space Pabs, eminently praiseworthy!

I like the look of all those drawers

Belated Happy Birthdays to Zach - we seem to have adopted a similar approach to life - Snooze power! ;ok:

Lovely pic pabs - one can almost smell the tropical warmth wafting in through those open windows!

Here it's all change tomorrow, and for some time to come, brought about by a shift in the weather regime which will sweep our little Indian summer away. I'm not saying there won't be any return to mild south-easterlies, but as these are not predicted to come back until the second half of the month they will not bring temperatures as high as those we' re still experiencing - here in the SE, at least - so, south of a line roughly from Hull to Bristol, today's the day to make the most of it.

Yes, as the man said: lovely drawers, Pablo!

Great to see Zach chilling - though it does look as if, were you to turn that huge fan on full, he would exit stage left at some speed, fur streaming...!

nice captain's chair (I think that's what they're called). Are the window grilles for keeping out wild animals ? Do you get snakes ?

I have slightly less ornate but similar grilles on the basement windows at home, in London W2.

Although as vinteuil will remind us, they are as much to keep the ocelots in, as anything else...


PS: I have just noticed that you have the same photograph of Elgar on your wall as I do, pabs

Wonderful soulful portrait, isn't it?

[BBMmk2]

Hmm mine is erm rather cluttered!! :)

never mind Elgar, (lovely though it is)the only picture I could find of a building in W2 with bars, sorry " Grilles" on the basement windows was this one.

The weather? gorgeous autumn day, just a mild tremor that I thought I felt under foot from the Chandlers Ford area .

[Nick Armstrong]

Ah ha HM Constabulary Paddington Green, as I live and breathe...

Evenin' all!

Back OT - indeed, what weather! Perfect! Cycled in early afternoon after a meeting up north-west - couldn't have been better weather, warm sun, cooling breeze. A delight. Want to get out of here and home in the light too, better press on....

[BBMmk2]

On the down turn, I would think a frost could be in store tonight?

Warm and breezy today in the Pennines - perfect drying day. I sat out again for half an hour this evening, but the wind was picking up and dark clouds are positively louring in readiness (presumably) for the storms forecast for much of the next few days. Still - a very pleasant week whilst it lasted. October already - fugiting all over the place!
