The good bits of August 2025. UK and Australia.

We started August in Northern Ireland and ended the month in Australia. It's been really busy, too much travel, jet lag and on the go non stop in the garden also.

But I wouldn't have it any other way (other than Business class flights if the price was right)

UK

Nightly hedgehog visit.


Loads of books read this month.

Three football matches.



Recreating photos with our granddaughter.

Work in progress in the garden.

We sifted all the soil from here to the front, now we can start on our new path.

I've been really surprised with the growth of these melons.

We do love our coffees out.

Australia.
We're still doing the same things, just in a different location and lots more walking, with beaches and lots of meals out.

Out for a walk in Centennial Park

Sport - SCG

Grandchildren - Breakfast for grandson, dinner for us.

Gardening - wondering what this is. A cabbage fern.
Not identified this yet

Coffee - Not so sure what they've drawn here 

I'll be writing separate posts about the places we've visited, the walks we've been on more about the flora and fauna of Australia over the coming weeks.

  1. Wow, you traveled a lot of miles. The photos sure look lovely, but I can relate to kind of feeling tired. I would imagine you would kind of have to find your footing again after such travels.

    1. It's lovey to be back in one place and be grounded for a while

  4. That's a long distance to travel - you should have material for multiple posts!
