    Tis hot indeed Beanie - are you sleeping or is it too hot for you? I got up several times just for a wander to cool down - had my head out of the window in the pouring rain at one point which was lovely but within 5 minutes of being in bed was roasting again.

    When are you going down memory lane for your birthday with your ds.

    Hope your feeling a bit better today.

    Last night I dident sleep well.
    It was hot & then we had thunderstorms like I have not seen in ages.
    The lightening was just awesome.
    I was waiting for the electric to go off. Was amazed it dident TBH.
    Master J did not like it at all. Mr N was blooming out in part of it. He was so so drookit when he came back.
    Today I am tired.

    Have a FB meeting tonight.
    We will see what happens.
    If we can get past the current hurdle with paperwork all should be ok.

    Very hot last night and very dramatic. Hope you all got enough sleep.

    We had a cracking thunderstorm last night as well. It cleared the air for about 10 minutes then it was back to hot and humid and me tossing and turning for most of the night :o

    Am I mis-reading your FB comment or is it in difficulty. I hope not. From what you've said you're obviously much needed in your community. :( xx

    No, the FB is not in difficulty.
    We just need to urgently sort out some paperwork. Sigh.
