My lamb kebabs are marinating as I speak

I know everyone in London is probably saying the same thing …but ” phew what a scorcher”. So where do Fiona and I go on the hottest October day since 1527 ? The Water lily House in Kew Gardens. Apart from nearly falling into the pond and ruining the whole display ( and 16 Japanese tourists photographs ) due to heatstroke, we had a lovely time , walking, talking and looking at beautiful things. We were going to go to The persian Palace with kay and Winston ,for supper tonight.But it’s too lovely and warm and dusky, so we are BBQing in the back garden instead.
