Hello!

I have been in the UK for a week now, on my way to France in another week. Have had a simply lovely time getting over jet lag, gardening and having tea with my nan, visiting family and generally soaking in the atmosphere of the diverse east London suburbs. Desperately trying not to let it soak in too far, lest I come out with a can of Foster's, four kids and a thick streak of racism.

I've since escaped to Devon for a couple days, and will soon be on my way up to breathtaking Wiltshire to visit my little cousin Kyrie. 

I have little to report of huge interest to most, but here are a few captured moments from my recent days. 

This is Rainham, very close to where my nan lives, taken from the top deck of the 365 bus to Romford.

This is my nan taking the rare and usually brief opportunity of sunshine to work in the front garden
