August is a Wicked Month

 Well not really. This title is a tribute to Edna O’Brien who died at the end of July aged 93.  I remember reading her book August is a Wicked Month and The Country Girls books as a teenager and thinking I was very sophisticated. 

The highlight of an otherwise quiet August was a trip to Nice with Kate.  It was blazing hot there, over 30C everyday.  I just about coped with the help of some factor 50, a hat and an afternoon nap in the air-conditioned apartment. Nice is a great place to visit.

Posting this unfinished account late. Will let the picture speak for themselves.

  1. Nice! I have only visited briefly, almost 20 years ago. We travelled to Cannes and spent a few days there. Without offspring. It looks perfect! Those tomatoes, I can almost taste and smell them x
