Storms, rains, droughts

After a very unsettled beginning, summer arrived with sunshine, heat and no rain - for holidaymakers it's been just about perfect. Our week in July left us feeling we should have booked a second. The sea was warm by June and a blessed relief as temperatures reached 30 degrees and beyond. We dropped in at Latitude - super handy from Walberswick of course.

This year the house interior has been freshly repainted and a new fence added to the back garden after February's great storm basically demolished it. Improvement plans for the winter include a new drought-tolerant border in the back garden (hydrangeas are just not cutting it) and some upgrades to internal and external furniture. And we're looking forward to some family time there, wood fire blazing!
