    • Good morning. Have just taken Hollie dog round to the vets. She’s been very lethargic recently which I might have put down to the hot weather but for her bad temper, clumsiness, falling down the stairs etc. She had blood tests yesterday and been called back in this morning for more tests. The vet thinks there is something wrong with her liver.

      So i’m Not going very far today. I need a top up shop and I have some garden jobs to do to keep my mind occupied.

      Laters.

      • Mornings, hot in the sun today but there's quite a cool breeze to go with it.
        Watering the garden plants today, although I'm on a meter shan't bother with the lawn though, that's yellow already The hydrangeas are really struggling, though, so can't leave them dry any longer.

        If it stays coolish, I'm going to try to get the swede bed on the plots, ready for planting - that'll take a few bucketfuls as well.

        Hope we get some rain soon.....

        Have a good'un

          • Morning, a lot cooler and a lot less sunny here although it was warm last night. Supermarket shopping for me today and then some ironing...yes that pile is still there but we are running out of clothes, clean bedding etc so really need to tackle it. Some of it has been there so long it's having to be washed again...oops!

            Hope All goes well for Hollie dog at the vet Janie!

            • Good afternoon, had to take my car for its first service this morning, got a run into town had a look round, but never bought anything, which I suppose will be a surprise to most of you now watching my grandsons, and sitting watching YouTube showing the ten healthiest veg to grow, which makes me wonder as my raised beds are on concrete where do the plants get all their minerals from? I think I will post that question as a threshing the veg forum

                        • Morning All

                          The promised rain never arrived yesterday but it was a tad cooler. Mix of sun and cloud at the moment and quite pleasant sat on the patio. I have shopping today before I am allowed out to play

                          Happy Wednesday

                          • Morning everyone
                            A lot cooler here yesterday and so far this morning.
                            Who would have thought that back when we were so looking forward to planting our seeds and plants that we would be discussing lack of rain
                            The mind boggles
                            Have a great day everyone

                            • Lovely moth, Rary. Thanks for identifying it, Martin.

                              Very hot and bothersome here. Mr Snoop is just heading out to pick up our post. One of the cats has joined me in the basement. Just as well it's not one of the dogs, as I'm not best pleased with them. Having run out of ripe tomatoes to steal off the plants, they're now setting about the green ones.

                              Other than that, more work and more lurking in the cool of the basement.

                              Have a jolly day, everyone.

                              • Good morning all.
                                A little cooler but still no rain.
                                Off to the eye specialist this morning and hopefully it will be a good result.
                                Have a good day all.

                                And when your back stops aching,
                                And your hands begin to harden.
                                You will find yourself a partner,
                                In the glory of the garden.
