    I just had a thought about watering my plants.

    Will collect grey water. When I next have a shower I will stand in a container and collect the water. Having a quick read it should ok to use as a stop gap on everything apart from edible crops.

    Also collect the water from the washing machine when on a rinse cycle. Again its ok as long as you don't store it.

    Yours

    Is that really a poodle? Looks like a labradoodle to me!

    Yes, it was labelled as a standard poodle, hence its size.

    Gitdog is celebrating Wimbledon by nicking Nan's strawberries. She has half a one left where he was removed from the pot mid munch. We presumed it was too hot for him to be up to no good - clearly not.

    I feel sorry for the folks in the local hospital today - new total smoking ban and hit weather making everyone irritable - bad enough to cope with when you're well.
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    Hey fellow Northerner....send some of that heat over to the West, and some sunshine if you have it! Not had much sun here today, is quite humid, but has been raining on and off.

    Blimey they weren;t kidding when they said it would be hot today! :eek:

    I'm very self concious of my flabby arms and generally even if it makes me hot and uncomfortable i will still cover up. This morning i took one step outside and thought "sod it", and have just had a vest top on. I don't care if the sight of my flabby arms disgusted anyone, i'm not sweltering and suffering for anyone!

    So yeah....you know its really hot when i actually stop caring about my arms haha :p

    Work asn;t bad at all, dead but went quick, my manager was really understanding and she said everything was fine and not to worry :)

    OOOOOOh and my new hello kitty's i ordered off ebay came today :j

    Hope everyone is ok and not suffering too badly in the heat *hands out ice lollies for everyone*
