    Glad you're feeling better Alfie x

    It seems weird to see people talking about how hot it is, would you believe that it was so chilly here earlier on that my heating kicked in? My DD has just gone upstairs to get her cardigan because it's so cool :(

    I know what you mean - trouble is we seem to go from one extreme to the other! Either chilly, to hot, to humid, to wet! :o

    Just trying to recall back, was it in the mid 70's when the country suffered drought conditions re heat at this time of year? Will have to google.

    Be a hose pipe ban here soon!!! Can see it coming!! Luckily I am a secret eco warrior :D and have things in place! Can see a neighbour with sprinkler on their lawn ...... what is the point!! Grass will recover and good luck to them cos we are on water meters here!!!

    Hope it warms up a bit for you love :o Sending a wee bit of sun your way, but will keep predicted thunder storms here :eek: xxx

    Hey everyone.:wave:

    I like kids but I wish they wouldn't keep leaving their toys in the middle of the road. They leave them there and then go inside, leaving them unattended. It's dangerous for the cars on the estate and also their toys risk being broken and even possibly stolen! Call me a party pooper or whatever but I just think it's dangerous.

    Ninja is going wild chasing a fly!

    Anyway, DH is out at the moment with his dad buying a tyre for the car.

    Our cupboard door won't open. The latch is stuck and it won't budge. I wouldn't normally worry but we keep all of Dex's clothes in there because we don't have room anywhere else. The HA said that someone will be here within 5 days to fix it, despite me telling them that Dex goes through clothes like there's no tomorrow due to weaning at the moment. I've managed to find some to wash as we're going to a BBQ tomorrow but I don't want to leave him in dirty clothes! I've asked FIL if he'll have a look for me, even if it's just a case of prising it open and then I'll get alot of clothes out to make sure I have enough for him until it gets fixed properly!

    Anyway, hope you're all having a good day. :)

    Hi! I remember the summer of 1976 very well! We went on holiday to Devon and I got the best tan ever - better than anything I ever got abroad and it was a really lovely colour for some reason (why should tans in England be a different colour than abroad?!) and it stayed for ages and I actually looked healthy for once! We stayed in a hotel that was so much like Faulty Towers, you wouldn't believe it. I'll tell you the story if it wouldn't bore you too much!

    p.s. I luv cats too! In fact, my two Siamese are flopping all over the place as they are so hot - don't know what to do with themselves. I have been sponging them down with a wet, cold cloth which they seem to like...

    Thank you sweet pea :A

    Feeling better today but yes you are so right. I try so hard to be polite to these people and I know they are trying to earn a living - but they do themselves no favours. My neighbour (big bloke) had no probs - 6 footer - then there is me 5 foot, 2 inches and possible shrinking with age :o :rotfl:

    However, it's done and dusted now. Will be more careful who I open the door to in future.

    Love n hugs to you and yours. Much love alf xxxxx

    Lol - would love to hear about faulty towers! Won't bore me at all, or the other inners I am sure!! :D

    Wish I could sponge my wee cat down but it's a no no as far as she is concerned :o Tried it and she strutted off most disgruntled!!! I am in the dog house, or should I say 'cat' house!!! :o Guess I will be forgiven eventually!!!! :D xxxxx
