Morning all. ‘‘Tis roasting here as well
I barely set foot outside yesterday, just worn out from heat and work.
Feel much better today, so will inspect the crops and flowers shortly
Runners are coming along a treat, another week and a few might be big enough to pick. Fingers crossed.
Potato scab in our second bucket. Lesson learned, we can get rid of our spent compost at the local football club. All fresh compost next year.
Have a great day everybody

Good morning all.
Another very hot day here.
Pitch and putt by the sea today so it may be a little bit cooler.
Have a good day all and don't forget the sun cream.

Morning all, beautiful again though a little cooler. Hope you are all enjoying the good weather even if our plants are not. Took mum for her cream tea on Wednesday...86th birthday, hers not mine! Parked but when we got out of the car I realised I was part way over the lines so said to her (she can walk very well now) wait there until I fix the car. What does she do? Takes off like a whippet and before I could catch her up she had tripped over a paving stone and landed on her behind!!! Thankfully she wasn’t hurt,just her pride. The unbelievable thing was not a sod came to help me get her up. You wonder about humanity sometimes!!
Anyhoo hope you all have a wonderful weekend.

Is that like Yellow snow, Flo?
Hot here - too hot to do much outside - so I'm not.
Watered the toms and picked toms and courgettes, and that's my lot. Going to find my book about Growing Winter Veg to see if it cools me down!

Have a great day, whatever you're doing - and don't overdo it.

Hot here too...going out for the evening....anyone tried stuffing ice cubes into a hot water Bottle?

[Thelma Sanders]

Lazy morning, here, then went to the plot for some watering, then picked some peas and lot of raspberries
Dug up another early potato, but nothing underneath to speak of..... Hope the later spuds are doing better, or planting the seed will have been a complete waste of money and effort.

Hope you are all having a lovely day

Afternoon all,melted and itching scalp,my forehead and face were leaking down the lottie,very unusual for me,this heat reminds me a film several years ago,about the plantet earth getting hotter,cannot remember the name it,i need a cool shower on the head,not had ice cubes in a bottle Nicos,but cold water is good,topped with a sheet instead of the duvet,we dare not have a window open,as bedroom on the front ground level,stay safe all,drink plenty

Good afternoon,started off cool but now nice and warm my daughter and son in law are at a wedding so we are watching the boy's, had spent a bit of time in the garden this morning, watering, dead heading and thinning out, then once we came up to our daughter's, first I had a door to sort on her washing machine then dead head all her plants and take the dog a walk though by then it was getting too warm for her, when we came back from the walk the ice cream man was on the street and the dog wanted a cone, she sits and whines till you move and if you don't go for one she goes in the huff with you, I wonder where she learned that wee trick, so I had to go and buy 4 cones and sit and hold hers till she licked it all up, watching a bit of football, good to see England doing well the team deserves it, though the commentators are hard to listen to, to me they spoil a good game. No matter enjoy the night's celebrations and good luck for the next game

ENGLAND - Footballs Coming Home

Not shopping in I Kea anymore!!

[Nannysally99]

Morning, a quick pop in to collect the spotty dress

[Nicos]

Mornin n'alln'all
Suits you NS!....good choice.

Final blast up the cherry tree for me today.
Such a big tree and they are tantalisingly out of reach.

Couple of Vide greniers near by(desperately need jam jars!) but it's going to be too hot to do either soon!
Will take the day as it comes!

Oh...and OH ended coming home with 42 railway sleepers in the end yesterday...gawd knows what we'll do with them all
Nothing like a bargain at half price eh

[lottie dolly]

I'm pretty sure you can't use a "cherry-picker" for that job - surely it would break heath and safety rules or something ? :-)
