      Ah yes @ARMANDII the dreaded little sh1ts! Luckily we aren't bothered here but were when we lived in The West of Scotland. Hell if it was warm and still and had been raining which is a VERY regular occurrence in The West you might as well abandon being outside after about 6.30pm. It's no accident we now live in the East of Scotland:)

            Like everywhere I think......hot and sunny.
            More a visit to the beach than work in the garden :)
            Enjoy your day everyone :hapfeet:

                Too hot to garden yesterday, but luckily my daughter is visiting, so I had the perfect excuse to bunk off and spend the day on the beach. We even swam, mad fools that we are...Sea temperature 12 deg...!

                Looking hot again today, so we are planning a coast path walk to catch any breezes, then another beach trip late afternoon, followed by a delicious Sri Lankan curry served by our local beach cafe... The best outdoor food in North Devon!

                    That's why, like Silu I live on the east coast Armandii, the midges are in the west. :)

                    That explains it then @Kandy......it's hit 33C/91F here today! :phew: Mr S and I were planning on venturing out for the day but it's to hot for us so we stayed in and sweltered here instead. :biggrin:

                    As you can gather another hot, sunny day.

                      Same here another beautiful clear sunny day :yay:
                      Today reminded me of holidays abroad, when you wake up warm and nothing aches and the sun has that tingling feeling on your skin when you go outdoors.
                      After a hard days graft at work the temperature at 4pm was 28'c/83'f so decided.to have a couple of glasses of wine and tea outside and come in at 9pm. :yay:
                      Currently 20'c 68'f
                      Forecast is for some thundery downpours tomorrow, I live in hope :yahoo:

                            The local weather forecast promised us a thunderstorm and localised flooding this afternoon. :whistle: The day started hot, sunny and breezy with the temperature reaching 31C/88F. By mid afternoon the so called storm clouds gathered and early evening saw some drizzle for a short time - the temperature dropping a full 10 degrees to 21C/70F. The evening has stayed dry.

                            The forecast for today was a mix of s(f)un, (c)loudy and (ref)rain with a bit of (en)lightening to spark things off a tad. It did not disappoint! ;)

                              Started of sunny and has been hazy sun for most of the day and reached 27C
                              It is now quite cloudy, not a breath of wind and hovering at 25C.

                              On the radar, looks like someshite coming up from France, but nothing new there :lunapic 130165696578242 5:
