Looks like Autumn’s arrived!

Some of the trees in the garden seem to have given up for the year!!

Holiday in Sarasota

We're just back from a holiday in Sarasota. A very relaxing time staying at our AirBNB place, Chasing the Sun. As well as our normal beach walks we were given two bikes which we used to get around as well (to further afield places like Ken Thompson Park). We did our usual shopping trips as well as going to the Cinema to see 'A Star is Born',and spent Halloween at Madison Avenue Cafe watching the fancy dress people parade by.

On Friday we drove up to Lakeland to have lunch with heather and Steve at Harry's Seafood bar, driving back we got caught up in some terrible weather and stopped when a tornado warning was announced!

On Saturday there was a display of Ferrari's in the square which was very impressive. 

A few photos are below, the rest are here:

Walk over Fairlop Waters

As it was a sunny morning today, we headed up to Fairlop Waters for a walk to enjoy the Autumn colours and a coffee at the Boat House.

West Ham v Man United and a trip to Southend

A group of us met up with Mill in Stratford after the 3-1 win by West Ham over Manchester United for a few drinks before heading down to Southend and meeting up with the girls in the Railway Tavern who had been out for afternoon tea in San Fairie Ann.

Meeting up for a curry with Mill in Upminster

With Mill over for his nephew's wedding, we took the opportunity for an EPS re-union at Ginger in Upminster for a curry. Good to see everyone again!

Weekend with Marie, Arne Ivar and Reza

We've had Marie, Arne Ivar and Reza staying with us this weekend. On Saturday, the weather wasn't great, so we went to Stratford for a bit of shopping and a look at West Ham's stadium, before heading up to town and a walk around The Natural History Museum (with most of the tourists in London!) to avoid the rain. A few photos are here, the rest are here:
