The photographic evidence proves that I am not crazy, yet! The sound of an ice cream van chime has been haunting me all weekend. I have to remind you that we are in the first half of January which is still considered as winter and people do not normally run out to the ice cream van when they hear it.

The shortest day of the year has finally passed us which means that we are getting closer and closer to the warmer months. I can finally start on my brand new garden, do a few DIY jobs etc. It all made me think of the year we had and how many times I told myself that I will be better prepared next time but it never happens and I keep on burning my fingers. So I made a list of the top five things I’ve learned about London’s weather and …
I have been meaning to take a photo of this scene for months now and finally got round to taking my camera with today to finally take the photo. There is something about the view that is wonderfully brilliant. Wow, that sounds a bit too British for my liking.
