The big top is here for a few more days...

...and doesn't it look better seen with blue sky and sunshine? The weather forecast looks pretty good for the rest of the Bank Holiday weekend too.

Saturday sea

It doesn't look like the colour of an August sea....

High hopes

The weather was lovely this morning when I took this photo. Sunny and still - perfect for spending a few hours on my balcony with some knitting or a good book. No such luck; by the time I'd got dressed and made breakfast, the sun has disappeared behind grey clouds and a brisk south-westerly wind was blowing.

Cromwell Road

After yesterday's little Tesco detour, this is Cromwell Road; number 15 is on the left and Eaton Manor on the right.

Yes, well...

I hate this sort of patronising notice. "Make it easier to shop", indeed - I don't think that's the real reason, do you?

From the lovely...

...to the unattractive. This is Eaton Manor, directly opposite the house with the stained glass and grand staircase I've posted about over the last three days. It's a huge block, spanning a section of Cromwell Road between Eaton Gardens and the Drive.

Windows 2

Another window from the same staircase - aren't the colours and detail of the central roundel lovely? The bird warbling away is a song thrush.
