autumn in london

Autumn is here again, with the smell of bonfires, damp earth and apples.  There are woodland creatures in the windows of Fortnum & Mason.

Outono vem chegando, com o cheiro de fogueiras, terra molhada e maçãs.  Traz cores bronzeadas, bruma e sol baixo.  Há bichos e pássaros nas vitrines da loja Fortnum & Mason.

sheep at the royal academy?

What would Sir Joshua Reynolds have thought? But it’s true. A small flock of Bowmont Merino sheep have been running circles round the statue of Reynolds in the courtyard of the Royal Academy of Arts. They were brought here to celebrate the RA’s current exhibition, ‘Australia’, and the final weekend of Wool Week.

Umas ovelhas fofas na Royal Academy!
