Well, September is now breaking records. Yesterday temperatures rose higher than any temperatures recorded for September since 1911. In some parts of south east England it reached nearly 100 degrees - a real Indian summer going on down south. :) Which brings to mind something Dad was fond of saying,...

Oh yes, those black glass TV stands are a nightmare to keep dust free! Was very pleased donate that to charity, zero sentimental value there!
