The Promise of Summer

This morning I woke up and it was beautiful, warm enough to wander round my freshly mowed garden in my robe and set the table for an alfresco breakfast, the first French strawberries have started to appear in the markets a sure sign that the salad days have arrived.

My blogging life is very sporadic at the moment, I have a few projects that I am working on, hopefully the fruits of my labours will be revealed soon.  In the meantime I have become hooked on Instagram, for the moment I am finding it to be a fast, easy, fun and totally addictive way to keep in touch, you can catch up with my Instagram feed here

I hope the weather is good wherever you are.

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend.

Summers End

Hello I am back with a post about the end of Summer and the start of Autumn, for me it happens a bit later as I take my holiday in September so my Autumn starts in October, only now can I think of warm cosy scenery, log fires, making soups, cashmere, boots and visiting the cities I love in the run up to Christmas but for now I leave you with some photographs I shot of Provence and the Italian Riviera in mid September....

Harley Davidson meet South of France!

"What do you mean no towel!  I didn't know it was that cold, I wouldn't have jumped in if I had known you had not thought of bringing a towel for my rub down!"

 Sadly getting off the coast road and onto the auto-route... although still quite spectacular not to mention an amazing feat of engineering look at the auto-route bridge leading to the tunnel which links France and Italy.
