I think it was @Fleura who first highlighted the little woollen hats that are appearing on top of post boxes.
They have made their way to West London and the picture shows a selection that have popped up on my local post box.

My partner and I met twenty years ago through the SCUBA-diving club, and we spent a lot of our early years diving around the UK (as well as a few trips overseas).

At one of the many gas stations we have stopped at today, I found some new Hostess doughnuts. If you know me well then you know that if I see a new flavor of candy, drink or snacks I usually have to try it. I've tried many...

I woke up this morning and had to take an allergy pill. My eyes are itching badly and I'm coughing. I have no idea of the air quality outside or the pollen count but I'm guessing it's got to be bad because my eyes are really itchy...
