    My lovely husband is out cutting the hedge.

    The alternative is hiding behind the sofa. He is going to try and watch the tennis near the end.

    Hahah.

    Mine was doing the verge this morning, He brought the hedge cutter round and I did where I could reach. :o. The verge is cut. Most of the hedge will wait till next week :rotfl:

    I'm just watching the tennis :p and having a Pimm's. Lovely. Would like to be outside in the sun though.

    I start work tomorrow so it's acceptable to have one last lazy day today!

    Is Pimm's a posh alert btw? It was a litre bottle for a tenner in Morrison's if that makes any difference?

    Nothing in morrisons can possibly be a posh alert. It was 25% off pimms in waitrose today, but it was still £15 a bottle. £10 seems a good deal, buy in bulk!

    This match is looking very attritional.

    Paying full price for pimms should be a silly alert.

    It's always on special offer at some point in summer. Sadly also on silly alert should be buying it every special offer. We have far to much of it in the drinks cabinet. I'm not even that keen on it. Every now and again its lovely, but I wouldn't want to glue it all summer long. :o

    I think it's pretty vile, especially with cucumber in it. I'd rather drink shandy.

    Phew, that's what I thought!

    Mm I'm enjoying it, think it's going to crescendo.

    Mm agreed, it's my first one of the summer. I like it now and again, and as I say it was on offer so thought I'd some in, going down nicely with the tennis.

    I don't have any Pimms atm, but I think I'm going to need a G and T to get through the rest of the match.
    Come on Andy.

    Edit: I quite like Pimms. Probably because I associate it with hot sunny weather :)

    My drugs preclude drinking. I am trying to make a scarecrow very, very quickly.

    I feel, drugs or not, need for scotch and rocks.
