    Hi everyone, I see its been really hot for you all. Its not too bad here at the moment as it looks as if its brewing for a storm.

    Done the ironing and some of the cleaning. Went to hairdressers, just a trim, cut and blow dry as usual.

    Lottie nearly had a miss-hap this afternoon in the garden. There was a bee walking along the path which Lottie was trying to pick up in her mouth until I shouted. unfortunately it lost one of its wings in the process.
    BIG THANKS TO ALL WHO POST THE COMPETITIONS

    Oh yes sylv - used to worry about me late dogs big time!!! Usually it would be a bee, overloaded with pollen, staggering around or resting. Or maybe a wasp!!! They just couldn't resist!! I tried to intervene and thankfully they were never stung - lucky them!!! Far to inquisitive but guess that's the way they are. :) Tis life xxxxxx :)

    Know what you mean ff - To be honest, I'm eating but not really enjoying, just eating to get food down me I suppose :o

    Thought tomorrow if I got something cooked for me then maybe it would give me appetite a bit of an oooomph!! Not sure really?

    Am also drinking loadsa water through the day and also chilled orange juice which I know is good but it kinda takes the edge off the appetite :o

    Just seen local weather forecast and tomorrow it seems it's going to be 31+ :eek::eek::eek: Flipping heck - swoon, wilt and total melt down!!!!! :eek::eek::eek: :o xxxxxx

    Wingo - glad you enjoyed your piza and hope you have a nice time with your Mam, big hugs for you all.

    Was wondering about your back passage too Alfie, glad we cleared that one up!

    firefly - you need to eat more you cant survive on just water and scrambled eggs you need to look after yourself.

    Got a bit of a scare this afternoon. Was brushing Lottie while Fred had taken Suckie out then went to go in the kitchen and saw something move so pushed the hall door to kitchen a bit further and a pigeon took off out of the kitchen through the open back door.
