It’s a bank holiday in the UK today – if you’re off work I hope you have a lovely time and that the weather where you are is good. And if (like me) you’re at work – I hope your day is easy and over fast and that you have the next bank holiday off! Anyway back down to earth after the two weeks off and a fairly solid list, helped by the fact that I was on the train every day. This week I’m staying in London a couple of nights and hoping to catch a show or too so the list may suffer accordingly. I am making progress on the still reading books – even though it might not look like it!

One cookbook bought – but that’s it. And as cookbooks don’t go on the pile, they sort of don’t count as a book purchase!
Bonus picture: Spring time (but almost summertime heat!) in Regent’s Park.
