Bank holiday Monday, so we joined the rest of London in strolling about Greenwich park. Massive naval buildings, the Cutty Sark and a trip down nautical lane. Dinn dinns in the backyard after a touring day out, down to Greenwich and back down the river to Waterloo.

People’s kitchen day, here we have Cam and I with one of the bikes that we did up to help carry equipment and advterise the events. The sun brought the people out to Myatts field park here we have Lucy, Fan and Christine dishing up the food – that would have otherwise gone to waste! […]

Finally got to Broadway markets to enjoy the delicious food on offer. Got a sweet spot in the sun at bar that served up Belgian beers – tasty times! Got to try some new ones too, like old mate ‘Wiktap Pater’ above – kind of like a creepy santa. Most excellent to share those beers […]

At the end of August, the flat as we know it will change. Wakefield (middle) is heading home, so we all cooked a couple of dishes each to have a last supper in the backyard – note outrageous levels of growth – ‘wild’ tomatoes and pumpkins back wall, different pumpkin variety ‘ram’s kodu’ to the […]
