Lucky you to have an Afa - always been a dream of mine but sadly never realised and to have a real fire that needs the chimney swept - we had a log burner in France but here we have no proper chimney - but to look on the bright side we don't have any cleaning out of ashes to do either!<br /><br />As you say we nust enjoy what sunshine we can now as the evenings draw in - more time for crafting though perhaps?!<br /><br />JaneMarigold Jamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02895195019277206960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6542734265072988645.post-12941080957343092292009-08-25T23:24:40.884+01:002009-08-25T23:24:40.884+01:00Ah, what a lovely post, really enjoyed the photos ...Ah, what a lovely post, really enjoyed the photos of the sunflowers and glad to hear there are still some hops left to be picked in the garden of England. We remarked this evening that it was completely dark by 8.45pm and a bit nippy, too. I commented that it wouldn't be long before we had the fires burning and I've been reading my quilting book ready for some quilting action to keep me cosy! Hopefully, we might still have some pleasant days in August and September.<br />Hen xHenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09785129568184134280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6542734265072988645.post-20881814949841044082009-08-25T22:57:58.283+01:002009-08-25T22:57:58.283+01:00What a peaceful afternoon amoungst the sunflowers....What a peaceful afternoon amoungst the sunflowers.
