Come Rain Or Shine?
Living in Oz can't can't come too soon!! Reading the national press yesterday here in the UK, the MET office declared that areas of the Uk had an average temperature of 15.2 degrees during August with rainfall up an average of 80% for this month in many areas. So much for planning barbies here!! How long does the average visa application take? Here's hoping ours is on the quicker end of the scale, before I drown...through tears of frustration or the british weather!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Had a 'lovely' day here. Little Miss who is almost a year old loves the outside. Got to 25 too. Finished the new pergola after being here for 2 years and we're looking forward to a few months of just right weather before the real heat kicks in.
