We’re back home to a very sunny Glasgow after our enjoyable, although much hotter than expected, week in the Cotswolds. The south west of England has been under an Amber warning for “severe heat” from the Met Office for the last few days, which doesn’t surprise me at all. When we arrived home this afternoon the first thing that I noticed was that the heat was noticeably less fierce than in Cirencester, although the weather was still very warm. We were greeted by Tom, who was very affectionate, and soon afterwards Flora came in through the cat flap and gave us a noisy welcome. Yesterday we spent most of the day back at Buscot, where James did another Thames riverside walk and I swam in the pool beneath the weir again. It was so lovely and cool and relaxing.
On our way back to Cirencester we stopped at Lechlade for a coffee and also visited St Lawrence Church which is very old and quaint. Percy Bysshe Shelley once visited its church yard on a summer’s evening and wrote a poem about it.
