An amazing Autumn with hEAPS of fallen leaves!
We dont usually get so many leaves in falling in Australia so we took lotsa photos. This was on the way to the gym in a little part of London called Crouch end.
This one is on a street near ours which we think is really English. We've been documenting the seasonal changes of this street with photos of it as it goes through the growth - we are sooo cool

Rhyming Slang: Boat = Face - because Boat Race rhymes with Face. Almonds = socks - because Almond Rocks rhyme with Socks.
Petrol here is 93p = $2.6 Ozy per litre
The saying - 'Teeth like a victorian cemetary'; 'My left foot has more brains than___'
Mare and Madonna live in the same city!!
More Rhyming Slang: Jam = Car - Jam Jar rhymes with car. Barnett = Hair - because High Barnett Fair rhymes with Hair. Iron = poof, because iron hoof rhyms with poof
