    Its turned out really sunny, and hot. I had to have another bath, and change my clothes, as was dressed really warmly first thing.

    Got washing drying on the line. A simple pleasure. I've been out, and about, when not on here.

    Looks like being another hot, sunny day here, if that blasted wind doesn't come.

    Got a duck crown cooking in my slow cooker, all the beds stripped, washing hanging on the line. Sorted some old clothes to be recycled/taken to the charity shop. Just me, and my teeny tiny son, so feeling very chilled. My daughters coming back around 1-2pm today, being dropped off.

    Still in my PJs, so will relax for a little longer reading the Sunday papers soon, then have a lovely long bath.

    Have a lovely day folks! :)
