I don't know about you but I am loving that autumn is here. Don't get me wrong I'm not a huge fan of grey rainy days and I love summer, especially when it is like the one we have just had, but autumn is possibly my favourite. Most folk talk of new beginnings with the start of a new year or the coming of spring, but for me September has always be a time for fresh starts. I think it comes from it being the start of the new school year. I like the chill in the air and the promise of fairy lights and fireworks and party season on it's way.

Anyway, here are some autumnal pins I have been looking at...

Explore52 - 34-37

I have 4 weeks of #explore52's for you today and they show a small change from late summer into early autumn. 


First of all we have this little gem of old advertising on the side of a city centre building, it could quite easily be missed if you weren't looking but I happen to think it's rather lovely. 


Secondly is this corner of the Abbey which is a little bit hidden. The gothic curves and windows look particularly lovely here in the late summer sun. 


Next is the Parade Gardens that are in the heart of the city, with beautiful statues, views of the city and a bandstand and deck chairs it is easy to see why locals and tourists like to lunch here in the sunshine. 


Lastly there are a couple of snaps of the fabulous folk who descend upon Bath each September for the annual Jane Austen Festival. I love to see them parading around our Georgian city in their finery, heading for the Guild Hall or Pump Rooms in the footsteps of Ms. Austen herself.

Worked on a commission piece today, my first Christening bangle. I have to say that I'm pretty darned pleased with it.

Late Summer Fun in Pictures

So my friends here are some pictures of my movements over the last few weeks, I have been taking a break from the computer to get in preparation for the impending Christmas making season. To get in the right headspace I have been making plenty of time to be with good friends on the halcyon days of summer. I have made some wonderful memories and here are a few snaps of trips to the coast, spontaneous camping, Gromit spotting and playing in park with little people.
 

Some very special days with special people xx
