YorksLass

Morning all, thanks @Ruby - I hope today goes well for you.

As expected, very little got done yesterday because of the heat but, when it was cooler in the early evening, I managed a walk up to the local shop for some milk and fresh fruit. We had a yellow weather warning saying there could be a thunderstorm and hailstones in our area; thankfully that proved not to be the case here although I think some parts did. Today's forecast is for something a bit more "normal" - sunny intervals after a cloudy start and temperatures in the high teens - before the heat returns tomorrow. With that in mind I'll get on with some neglected chores today. One benefit of good drying weather - I can see the bottom of the laundry basket! 😁

DS has sold another item on the Bay of E and I'll have a rummage for some packaging materials in a minute so he can get it posted off. He's still on the job search and is hopeful of success with one application that's in the pipeline; sadly most don't even elicit a 'thanks but no thanks' response.

Tea tonight is salmon, peas & sweetcorn with baby potatoes. May's low-spend grocery exercise is a partial success in that I will come in under budget but not by as much as I'd hoped. Still, any saving is welcome and I'm using up things from the cupboards - after all, I bought them to use not to look at! 😂

Have a good day all, take care. xx

Morning All

Hope today goes well Ruby.

We had thunder, lighning and a bit of rain last night but didnt cool down for long so a very restless night.

Went out to lunch yesterday with a friend , lovely afternoon putting the world to rights. I did feel sorry for the serving staff as there was no air con and it was very warm.

Hope DS job search goes well Yorkslass keeping fingers crossed for him.

I really need to get some bits and pieces on V****d of bay of E but too hot organise at the moment. Also need to get some wrapping materials.

Hope everyone has a good day keep hydrated

Take care

Yesterday was too much for me, I quite like hot weather but I was grumpy yesterday. Nice to wake to cooler temps today.

Took Bdog along the river for 3 miles and was home before 8 - it was lovely. Just done some shopping and prescription collecting - thankfully the shops were quiet.

Might need a nap later but definitely some tidying up needs doing as it was too much even for that yesterday

Take care all
