Drought or flood?

Here in London, it is still dry and people are talking about a drought in SE England. Elsewhere, in Wales and in the SW, there are floods! So one cannot talk about 'the UK weather', at least not at the moment. I am sure we'll get our share of rain soon!
In the meantime, we still walk quite a bit. On Friday along the left bank of the river up to Teddington lock and then back via the right bank, a total of about 11 miles. On Saturdat we joined the Central London Outdoor Group for a walk along some of the Surrey commons, starting in a village called Ashmead and ending at the Claremont gardens, both about 45 mins away by train.

Yesterday we delivered the police clearance to the Embassy, so now we wait again. There are a few steps in the process that we dont have any influence on, it has all got to do with formalities. The final naturalisation may be done in anywhere beteen 6 weeks and 4 months.

Below are some walking pictures.


We thought this was strange: the leaves are gone, but the apples are still there!






The roots of this tree are almost completely exposed through erosion of the soil.
