Rufus' Diary

Hello dear reader, I hope you are well. Phew, life sure does move at a galloping pace. September already, autumn has arrived, the nights are drawing in and the weather is cooling down, but we are still enjoying some lovely warm days.

One thing we like about autumn is blackberries. Polly has made some absolutely delicious blackberry and apple crumbles (yes I was given a small amount 😋). In the past she has used packet crumble mixes but this time she made her own and added breadcrumbs, they add a little extra flavour and texture.

Polly took these photos a few weeks ago

she calls it asphalt art. 

It's just shadows of roadside weeds! But if Andy Warhol can have soup cans,

and Tracey Emin can produce her bed then Polly can have road art! 

She took some of me but they are SO unflattering I haven't included them.

A lot more stuff has been collected in the bonfire area. We thought it was no longer burning because we hadn't seen flames or smoke for a long while, but then we saw it burning yesterday. 

Hylands Park had a dinosuar event during the school holidays, there were lots of figures and the sound effects were brilliant, it really did feel like Jurassic Park. 

Look what Polly found stuck to the back of the freezer whilst cleaning it out

yes it's a fish finger!

She still hasn't replaced her old laptop but she is getting close - it's definitely

going to be a chromebook, she's checking out processors at the moment!! 

Here's another Haiku

Some favourite things

Sunshine brightly in the sky

Birds singing on high

∼ Be safe and well ∼
