A final bid for freedom: making the most of the last of summer

If you're in the UK, you've probably been noticing the same thing as us: the weather is feeling truly autumnal. We're wearing more socks, jumpers, and layers than we'd like for the last couple of weeks in August.

We'll get excited about September, autumn, and back to school soon (we promise!). But right now, with the bank holiday in sight, we just want to make one last bid for freedom and summer.

So whatever the weather is doing outside, wherever you are, we're sharing some ideas and tips for a summery bank holiday. You don't have to go anywhere or trail AirBnb for last minute getaways to the Med. Just bring some summer vibes into these last few days of August...

String up the lights for dinner

Get that festival feeling, whether it's in your garden or your kitchen, by stringing up the fairy lights or festoon lights. Get friends over, eat good food, turn the music up, and laugh into the night.

Have a final summer photo session

Grab some summer-themed photobooth props, a Polaroid (or just your phone), and get snapping!

Get family or friends involved for the summer party you never had until now, and imagine you're in Barbados, even if you're just in your front room. Pineapples and flamingos never looked so good.

Once you've got the photos, a crafty afternoon with the laptop and a new photo album can help to extend the lovely memories you've already made this summer.

Make ice cream sundaes like they're going out of style

Is there anything as synonymous with summer as ice cream? Probably not. Go wild and get your favourite flavours, toppings, sprinkles. Splash out for the most decadent summer ice cream bowls.

My name is CLARA JAMES .I want to give thanks to PRIEST WISDOM for bringing back my ex husband.No one could have ever made me believe that the letter I’m about to write would actually one day be written. I was the world’s biggest skeptic. I never believed in magic spells or anything like this, but I was told by a reliable source (a very close co-worker) that Trust is a very dedicated, gifted, and talented person,It was one of the best things I  have ever done. My love life was in shambles; I had been through two divorces and was on the brink of a third. I just couldn’t face another divorce, and I wanted to try harder to make our relationship work, but my husband didn’t seem to care. and he broke up with me again . I was confused and did not know what to do again, rather they got in contact with PRIEST WISDOM.He did a love spell that made my husband come back to me. We are now very much happy with ourselves. PRIEST WISDOM makes him realize  how much we love and need each other .This man is for REAL and for good . He can also help you to fix your broken relationship. I had my husband back! It was like a miracle!

I came across a website that suggested that Dr Ilekhojie can help get ex back fast. So, I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and he told me what to do and i did it then he did a reconciliation ritual for me. 48 hours later, my husband returned home after so many months away from our home, So Amazing!! He apologized for his mistake, for the pain he caused me and the kids. Our Marriage bond is now stronger and how it was before. Thank you Dr Ilekhojie for bringing back my husband. I recommend Dr Ilekhojie for anyone who is having troubles in their marriage/relationship. Here’s his contact Call/Whats-app: +2348147400259 or Email gethelp05@gmail.com
