    Sat here, in the lounge. It's ten past nine, doors are open, looking out into the garden, a lovely breeze coming in. Happy days!

        We were out on the Altar Stones, a minor Leics beauty spot last night at nearly 10 - not a breath of wind and still light enough to see your way with a panoramic view all around.

                          No.

                          It's the time of year when I'm planting out loads of stuff and I now need to cart loads of water to my plot (no supply) to water plants, it's more difficult to accustomise plants to outdoor conditions/avoid sun scorch, everything is much harder work in the hot temps, it's getting too hot in small polytunnels and I'd prefer it a bit cooler until everything has been planted out/got established.
