๐ธ It took all day, but eventually the clouds cleared and the sun made an appearance. A nice end to a very gloomy day. Autumn is definitely seeping in... #London #LondonLife #RiverThames #TheShard #HighriseLife #Sunset #LondonSkyline #BlueSkies

๐ธ Tonight's pre-dinner drink. I finally managed to get my hands on some of the peach flavoured -196 from Suntory and I'm happy to report that it's as delicious as I'd hoped! ๐ Maybe even nicer than the lemon version. ใใใฑใ #Suntory #Shochu #Vodka #Peach

Managed 6.44km this morning and it was very comfortable. Fairly consistent pace. But most of all, the sunshine was beautiful and powered me along! โ๏ธ First run since the Pride 10k and it felt really good! ๐๐ผโโ๏ธ #running #RunningLondon #ThamesPath #Strava

Our last full day in Morelia today. Iโve planned as far as quesadillas for breakfast! ๐ Tomorrow morning, we fly to Puerto Vallarta for the final few days of the trip. Itโs been really lovely here, but Iโm definitely ready for a new locale and some new sights. Including the beach and sea!! #Morelia #Mexico #Travel

Ah... Just read that Dolly Parton has died. Very sad news, but what a life! Music aside, her legacy of charity and literacy promotion will live on.

Sunshine, a swim-up pool bar, and an ice cold beer. Heaven is a place called Puerto Vallarta. A super change of pace after lots of running around! #PuertoVallarta #Mexico #Travel

Feeling ever so slightly fragile this morning, after a very late night. But it was great fun - totally worth it. Only thing on the agenda today is an afternoon tea we booked over near Tokyo station. Apart from that, weโll definitely be taking it easy - itโs set to be 35C here today ๐ฅต #tokyo #MacPsychInJapan

Morning. Still in bed, enjoying coffee number two and being sucked into YouTube videos about how Japanese Gen Z peeps organise their tiny apartments in Tokyo. It's somehow... soothing? Also: I'm going to stop moaning about how little storage our apartment has!!

Alright. Thatโs enough YouTube. Time for the #gym ๐ช๐ป

Looks like a lovely morning out there. Once I've managed to fully reanimate my body, I'll be heading out for a run ๐๐ผโโ๏ธ Need to enjoy the sunshine before the forecast rain arrives - seeing as it's a Bank Holiday weekend ๐ญ

I&#39;m not sure what I&#39;m enjoying more this morning: - The victory of a democratically-elected opposition over a bigoted, fascist regime in #Hungary ๐ญ๐บ or - Responses from butt hurt US fascists (and fascist-apologists) claiming it&#39;s like the fall of Rome. When they couldn&#39;t find Hungary on a map. ยฟPor quรฉ no los dos? ๐คฃ
