    Hi All

    Apologies for being late to the end-of-month party ... _party_ ... better late than never though ... ;)

    Well, following the recent trend, July was towards the bottom of the list of Julys so far, not helped too much by a dismal show from the sun towards the end of the month ... in fact it was that close to the bottom that there are none below it, which is probably the main reason that this post is late .. :o .. anyway, to celebrate without pushing the boat out too far, I think it's about time to partake in a thimble-full of beer .... :beer:

    Just 2.84 O yesterday, not looking good for the rest of the week either and suspect the balloon fiesta is going to be a bit of a damp squib.
