Dear friends,

Summer keeps on giving this year but I for one am pleased that temperatures above 30 Celsius are off the cards for now.

Many water companies have introduced hosepipe bans due to water levels in reservoirs falling very low. In our part of the world the reservoirs are natural aquifers in the North downs. Due to their size they do not empty very fast but they no longer fill up to former levels so we would do well to use water wisely anyway: this is not a limitless source of this precious liquid.

The picture is of the dining room in Leith Hill Place with a gorgeous stencilling detail on the chimney.

God bless,

Dineke van den Bogerd
