    Oh my goodness, hope we don't have to do this anytime soon. However, did go round closing windows this morning as a slight cooler breeze coming from the east. Also have worn a cardigan the last couple of days now the temperatures have dropped a bit.

    Breezy & warm here, but it can all change in 5 minutes. Had torrential rain and thunder which trapped me in the polytunnel a few hours ago.:eek:

    The kittens went under the Welsh dresser and haven't come out yet! :rotfl:

    Well, at least we won't die from pesticide or weed killers, lol.

    Over crowded trees might seek us out to complain, but.......

    Bit worried its over exposed to wind there. I panicked at the thought of loss and just planted, not where I had planned to, but where I could reach, and.....its in the wrong place. But I can live with it there, if IT can.

    :cool:priorities are funny things. We could have fixed the leaking bit of roof.

    We fancied a tree.

    We have no kids.

    The dogs don't care what we plant for the future. :rotfl:

    Your house will be finished well be fore ours. We really should get that back door on before winter.

    I still haven't worked out what bolts I need to buy for it or found someone local to fit it.

    Yikes, torrential rain and it's gone really dark! Check out BBC1 for the soaking scenes at the Commonwealth Games :(

    I ran out to bring everything in pots into the conservatory so the begonia flowers didn't get hammered by the rain and the succulents aren't water logged
