Sweet and savoury

As in life, food can be sweet, savoury, or even bitter.  These were images captured at Selfridges food hall, Oxford Street, London.

The silent life of the Mind ....

Mr Balloon Maker

Mr Balloon Maker, I met you on the High Street today: you looked so jolly with your balloon hat, and you brought out the child in me.  You made a sword for your friend dressed in a giant squirrel outfit, and you showed me your portfolio containing some really intricate balloon creations.  I liked the red devil instantly; and when I walked past Starbucks with this funny creature, everybody was staring at me!  It made my companion cringe with embarrassment.  Tell me, did I really miss a childhood that perhaps I never had?

River Thames at Runnymede

On a beautiful, warm Saturday evening, the River Thames at Runnymede was both atmospheric and inviting.  It was a perfect early summer evening for lovers to stroll along the river bank and for families and children to enjoy themselves.

 

 

Imaginative planters, just right for the riverside
