I feel like you should move to one of those car free islands where they drive around with ponies and traps

It was 40 degrees here when I went out - I think I would move anywhere right now that is cooler and as a bonus had some grass for the horses.
Another email from the local water company saying stop washing - clothes - and wash self less - and we won't have to switch your water off but it is likely you will soon only have water for part of the day (sigh)
Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!10 -
Raining here. Just sayin'

Strange weather here, very hot and muggy but random rain showers. Spent the morning at the beach though so cool enough

You can use a hosepipe for animal welfare Watty, so I suggest you fill up any containers you have before they start switching water off.

Containers filled. all the field ones are on automatic water so they fill automatically. I've left two that are not being used filled, the water looks disgusting and I would drain at this point in the year but I think I should just leave for now. Worryingly heard there might be no rain in this part of the UK to October, which, I am hoping is just a worrysome Express style headline rather than genuine forward planning.
Saw asthma nurse again yesterday and she concluded I do not have asthma and wants me to go back to GP. Am now tired of this, obviously something is up due to the chest pains and breathing issues but on paper I look extremely healthy. I agreed I would go back to doctor but I'm thinking I will not bother as every health check comes back clear so I'm beginning to feel like I'm making this up. Which obviously I'm not.

You may have already seen this: perhaps a fresh look at things would help? It must be really frustrating.
