Evening every body, just managed to finish weeding when the rain arrived, so glad as it saved me having to water, but so sad as had planned on sitting outside with the chiminea on and a nice glass or three of wine. Never mind have no excuse not to finish making the curtains now

Well finally started my first day working at Lincoln Hospital. Considering that they have an extreme shortage of sonographers and the waiting lists are out of control as a consequence, it has only taken the HR department 8 weeks to process my paperwork so I could start!

Well the roll of thunder turned out to be the preliminary announcement of a small rain shower - so now we are hot and humid all at once- small fan on overnight will be needed again

You can always join me on the sheltered back step with a glass of apple wine watching the rain in the courtyard, Bal.

Perhaps there is also a shortage of HR people....

I'm not usually up this early on a Saturday but the cat woke me.

It's wet and orrible here this morning. Still the allotment needs the rain desperately. If it dries up a bit later I might even be able to get a fork into the ground for the first time since the spring!

In the meantime I should spend some time on my blog, seems like a perfect job for a wet Saturday.

Been up for a couple of hours!! Wet and miserable here too. Going to get into flower bed soon and rescue gladiolas beaten down flat from all this rain. Why did I ask for it to rain.? Now I want the sun back!! Never happy!

Morning all, nice bit of rain through the night, definitely had more rain than you Jeanied, it's soaking out there. The ground really needed it. Going to pick my last two strawberries today to have with breakfast. Funny thing yesterday, bought a large tub of strawberry yoghurt from Lids yesterday, got it home and it is only the lid that says it's strawberry, the main pot is labelled up as apricot and mango or something similar. All sealed up, so no lid swapping has occurred. Will let you know later what I really had for breakfast. Laters

[Bren In Pots]

Morning, Mr Pots likes that apricot and mango yoghurt Sally so i'll tell him next time to check both lid and main pot.

Morning all - we had rain overnight too - thank goodness! I was afraid that I might have to start planting cacti outside. The sky is brightening, still grey and cloudy but not raining at the moment. So, time to get a leg into a pant and pop "up 'Anley duck" to get OH one of those collars you wear on a plane ... his neck aches all the time. Will it help? Who can say? Cucumbers and onions to process for more cucumber relish. Library. I ought to do some housework (aaargghhhhh!) but will save that for later - tomorrow perhaps - it's important to have something to look forward to . Have a good day whatever you are doing.

[Jeanied]

Well the rain came back last night and watered nicely - it is still dripping out there. Dog found three snails and a slug this morning - molluscs now safely disposed of in a dog poo bag in the bin.
I had better get moving - otherwise I fossilize sitting here on the sofa!
