Sunday in the Suburbs
I am always enchanted by anything “typically English” even though I’ve lived in the UK for over 30 years.
This afternoon, we visited a neighbour’s garden in the London suburbs, open to the public under the National Gardens Scheme. We pottered about looking at their shrubbery, roses and vegetabls while being entertained by the Swingtime Sweethearts singing WW2 favourites. We had cake and tea along with chaps in white panamas and ladies in sundresses - and a toddler waving the Union Jack.
Marvellous.

The Swingtime Sweethearts? The name alone is worth the price of admission. *grins*
(And considering it’s neighbour’s garden, I shall assume this is free. Even better.)

Hi Kenny, actually it’s for charity so we do pay an entry fee but it’s all in a good cause!
