Simon, Tommy and I have started doing a little 5k on the seafront, then having a couple of beers by the beach huts. It's very civilised.

I know Americans are not going to be impressed by abandoned petrol (gas) stations, but it's a novelty here.

Sweaty.

Charlotte and Tabitha have friends visiting for a couple of days, so I was looking to get out of the way.

I didn't even realise there was an eclipse until Amazon's estimated delivery date for glasses was tomorrow.

Today's been a bit of a rollercoaster, and it's only 1pm! Welcome visit to the kitchen from a large moth, though. Glad Charlotte was out.

Our next door neighbour's blackberries are coming in nicely.

I've been meaning to clean the car for so long. Naturally I choose the hottest day of the week. Looks nice though.

I've been looking forward to indulging in a little retail therapy. I need some clothes.

The best thing about having Monday-Wednesday off, is Friday comes a lot quicker.

I've been meaning to walk up here for a while but I keep forgetting or falling asleep. It's quite nice.

Last day of the kids' summer badminton camp. A fun, tiring few days. Back to work tomorrow!

Late night last night, coaching today, Tabitha's academy this evening. Long day.

Been wanting to try and start running a lot recently, and I have two friends who are super into it.

Another visit to the midlands to see family. I'm done with the M40 for a while now.

I like being by the sea. In the sea; not so much.

I love a monstera, and sometimes the way our kitchen light hits ours makes me go all mothy.

I have spent a lot of time bearing ultimate responsibility for every project that comes through Buffalo, and I am exhausted.
