Last day of "summer".

It's been a Bank Holiday wash-out today with rain from early on. Horrible! What a truly awful summer this has been and what a difference to last year when the sunny days just went on and on!

All plans for our walk were cancelled so we had a very relaxing morning doing very little. We now have a new neighbour - a rented van has been coming and going all weekend but we haven't yet met the person who's renting Sarah and Liam's house. I just hope they're friendly...and quiet!

We went out in the afternoon to the Majestic Wine Warehouse in town as I had some vouchers from Mum and Dad to spend. We bought seven bottle of wine - six reds and an Alsace white and I was thrilled to see the Ravenswood Zinfandel back on sale.

Just as we were finishing Mike called so before we went over to Kettering to pick him up we called into Waitrose so Sophie could buy me some coffee as she keeps drinking all mine!

The weather worsened as we drove over to get Mike and it looked like a late Autumn day. We didn't get up to much in the afternoon but Keith did venture to the pub...some things stay the same!
