Day 340- 7/9/10

The first pic of some street art- its been a while since I've had a little street art on here. Lots of these paste-up things in Brum. Is it art? Sure, why not? I had someone explain to me how these were done, and then how the artist ensured that taking them down was a pain the the butt. Very interesting.

Day 339- 6/9/10

Generally the day was ok, but just after I got in the door this evening the rain and wind came. Blech! There goes that warm weather I had mentioned the other day.

Day 338- 5/9/10

Books I am either reading, have read, or about to read.
The Larsson series is fantastic, I recommend it even if you normally don't read this genre of book. The Junior Officers Reading Club is a interesting view of the British Army, though from what I've heard not totally accurate. Still interesting.

Day 337- 4/9/10

For those of you that read this blog that know me personally, you know what's happening in my life right now...This little guy was given to me to keep me company over the next little while. Love him.

Day 336- 3/9/10

Walking home from after a dinner out. It was a really beautiful, calm night. No wind whatsoever, and the river was stunning.

Day 335- 2/9/10

If you've read the blog for a while, I believe you've seen at least two posts about this car. I'd like to say the Reliant is one of my fave British cars, and of course it all goes back to watching Mr. Bean tip it over as a child.

Day 334- 1/9/10

I think it was sometime in June, I was walking around town with someone and it was a fairly warm day. I said to her "Oh, I can't wait till it gets warmer and we get a bit more sun...when will that be?" She says... "Oh I hate to disappoint you, but this is the warmest it will get". (With it only being around 20 degrees).

Sadly, she was right. We had a couple nice days in the months of July and August, but it was never really a hot summer.

However, the last few days have become beautiful. Blue skies, warm weather...its great. Lets hope the rest of September is like this, make us feel like we have a little bit of a summer left!

This ice cream guy rides his bike up and down the high street on warm days with the ice cream "truck", feels so 1950's. Love the outfit.
