hello my lovelies!

Just a quick pop-in as thought some of you on here might be able to help.
I have 2 tickets to Proms on 6 August Royal Albert Hall for sale at face value (or near offer)!.

Bonus is, you get to meet up with me for drinks (or food). Friends pulled out at the last minute

Nice to see you again.

Currently trying to decide if I can be bothered to walk into town again. Have just spent a couple of hours attacking an overgrown plant in the front garden so I'm fairly warm. The sky has also clouded over and I'm not convinced it's not going to rain.
Hmmm....

Going out can seem a good idea in the daytime, it's finding that energy to drag your bum off the sofa later that's so hard.

Is there a live webcam so you can check how good/bad it is?

Its true, local town has suffered in storms. Supermarkets struggling. I think takeaways are going to do very well tonight.

Glad you escaped the worst of it then! Although your phone's a nuisance, "it could have been worse" and all that.

It came as part of a very generous present from a solicitor last week - the balloon, a posh white wine, choc covered peanuts and raisins, yogurt ditto, a mini-roses plant, some choc truffles, and a ridiculously expensive but very nice pair of baby vests (Petit Bateau, so almost certainly £25 - £30 of vests. PN would have a fit, they sell dungarees for fit babies that cost up to £50 per pair).

Kermie didn't get to benefit from most of the hamper, but the vests are all his, and the balloon he adores. OH and Isaac scoffed all the grub.

You should have scoffed the grub yourself, and then Kermie could have had the benefit when you recycled it as milk.

Things I didn't expect to be doing at eleven tonight....

Wondering where the safest place to leave granola to cool would be. Think I have decided that leaving in a tin with a thin teatowel over the top in a cupboard is the best bet.

There are virtues to living in sealed, urban cat free houses. ( or finishing granola early enough in the day to leave it in sealed Tupperware.)

That seems a good bet. Most cats are rubbish at opening cupboards.

Having looked forward to, and shopped for, cocktails. We forgot to have any:(

We had white wine with fish for dinner, sat outside and finished the bottle..and then coffee.

It is too late now..so I will have to try extra hard tomorrow.

We planted up the chimney pots tonight, two of them have blousey orange begonias and trailing ivy. One has a pot of a giant orange impatiens and the other has a well spread lemon thyme.

The weather was glorious, then suddenly went humid again for a couple of hours. Warm and comfortable again now.
