A much drier summer than last year - in fact, apart from a wet spell in the middle of June, it has been<br />

predominantly dry since April. For the five months April to August Charles recorded 17 inches in 2015 and<br />

only 12 inches in <strong>2016</strong>.<br />

Treats For You?<br />

I have always considered myself more of a writer than a cook. So, when<br />

guests to Retreats for You, our <strong>Sheepwash</strong> based writers and artists<br />

retreat, suggested that I write a cookbook, I was flattered – and amused.<br />

However, they kept on suggesting it, in between saying nice things about<br />

my cooking, and so eventually I did. Write a cookbook, that is.<br />

Eats for You, the Retreats for You cookbook is full of recipes, pictures,<br />

anecdotes and general foodie thoughts. It was fun to write, those who have<br />

already bought it say it’s fun to use and of course it features a few local<br />

names.<br />

It costs £9.99, and if you’d like a look, try<br />
