      The Inner temple lies between the Victoria Embankment and where the Strand re-joins the Aldwych "crescent", which is at the point it becomes two-way and changes name to Fleet Street, right by the law courts. Temple tube station on the District/Circle is but a stone's throw away.
      Ah, yes. My son was called to the bar at Temple Church. Around five years ago now!

      Doesn’t look like a great day today.

          Big dew, but cloudless, and chilly as yet.

            Useful rain arrived yesterday afternoon, gentle and persistent, and after I had finished gardening (lovely warm sunny morning) and it seems to have continued a bit during the night. This morning is grey, murky and damp, and likely to remain so according to the forecast. Some parts of the county had storms which caused localised flooding, glad to have missed that.

                Turned out rather good, in the end, yesterday. Today, we have the first fog! 21/09/2021!

                  You were lucky then, BBM! Here it was dull and grey right through to sunset, by which time it was too late!

                  Today - gorgeous warm sunshine - hopefully lasting for tomorrow as well, due as I am to take what will probably be my last long cycle ride of 2021; today has to be shopping, but with enough time for a bit of sunbathing for that free Vitamin D, while it, too, lasts!

                    Same here. Hope to go out later. Need my glasses tightened and batteries in my watch.

                          Same here. Cloudless sky, very sunny again. The only downside is that at this time of year the garden sees the sunshine for only a small portion of the afternoon and is almost gone by 4pm. The upside is that the sun streams through my listening room window for most of the day and, as long as I can keep books and CDs covered, warms the room up without any need for putting the heating on, even late at night.

                              Beautiful September day here, but so sad to see the self-harm scars and resultant haze in the sky at 7am from air traffic which suddenly seems to have gone back to pre-covid levels.

                                Haven’t heard much in the way of aircraft traffic down here, as we on flight path from Gatwick.

                                Looks like a good day, down here.
