The run up to a fortnight of holiday for me, so the days were simultaneously dragging and full of stuff that I was trying to get finished or progressed as much as possible.
However, now I am dozing in the sun with the requisite amounts of clotted cream and cider and a stack of books (Banks’ Use of Weapons at the moment).
Once the BH crowds have thinned, I will probably get out for some coastal hikes too.

Love Iain M Banks, Excession is one of my favourite comfort books
Just rereading that one now. It’s been decades since I first read them all, and it’s fab to get back into that universe :)
Is banks the sci-fi author? Sounds like a great day though!
Yes. This is one of his Culture novels. I’ve been enjoying them so far.
I’ll have to check his stuff out. I hadn’t heard of him before until I saw lots of his books in Waterstones when I was having a browse.
I’m currently reading Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky.
Just been out gardening and watched all the BH tourists heading home (45mph through the village…), so should be safe for you to get out now
