When we took a stroll around the Heath today we came across the stunning azaleas and rhododendrons at Kenwood which have flourished in the rain and produced magnificent displays this year. The whole Heath looks lush and green. All the photos I took are here. Here are a few of the photos.

The paintings were very good, although the exhibition was crowded, and they reminded us a great deal [...]
Christmas went on for a long time and consisted of a seemingly endless series of rooms full of people, food and sometimes quite a bit of noise. We kicked off as usual with Christmas Eve at Eva’s, a night of great company and simply wonderful food. Eva’s food table is a work of art. [...]
