September: time for change and new resolutions
September is fast approaching. It is always a time of year that feels like new beginnings to me.
In the UK, the children are returning to school for the start of a new academic year. Parents are busy sorting new uniform and heaving a sigh of relief that they have got through the long summer holiday. I can remember looking forward to the structure the school routine brought back to our lives. Of course my children would probably not have agreed with me.
The summer is drawing to a close and some days you can feel autumn approaching (not today it’s 32 degrees in London!).
