A very playful macaque (which I learnt are a type of third world monkey) perched on a balcony in Bali

A Balinese market stall with an example of a slightly different species of monkey…

A beautiful beach in Candidasa (a little seaside town in Bali)

Colourful lanterns strung up in Lombok

Back home in English temperatures – the first fire of the season

Jelly squeeze characters, broomsticks, bone-appetit dog biscuits, an eight foot tall skeleton (that supposedly ‘comes to life when activated’), and lots of fake blood are among things I’ve seen here in the shops this month (amongst lots of other stuff)…


A spider (not scary) who’d been showing off his or her web spinning skills in the garden

A Balinese beachside pagoda – visited when the sun was setting…

…and an English sunset (lots of fur trees visible)
