And so August arrives. The height of summer. A weird time when a lot of people are on holiday and nothing quite seems in a routine. (Even if you're still at work every day.)

We're looking forward to:

• Long evening walks to enjoy the late sunsets and holiday feel of staying out past bedtime
• Easy weekends of friends and barbecues
• Keeping the windows open all night - there's something so fresh and romantic and indulgent about it
• Playing hooky. We hope.

How about you? What does August hold for you?
