    It got much too hot here during the afternoon. It reached 84.3F and they forecast much hotter tomorrow. At the moment it's 75F and will be a warm sticky night.

    The plants in the greenhouse aren't too happy.

    83.7F at 10.30 :rolleyespink:. I've been out gardening but it's too hot for me. I'm just having a cool drink and then just a little bit of work in the shade. Oscar's been looking at me as though I'm mad to be in the sun! :heehee:

    Flying ants are massing in large numbers. At the rate they are coming out of the ground it should be clear by 11.00 :dbgrtmb:

      Too humid here! It's gone grey and it's sticky. Yuck! My gardening assistant (aged 4) has gone to watch scooby doo instead. :)

      Shiney been considering throwing a king size white sheet over my little greenhouse to shade it and reflect the sun from it. But I don't think the cucumbers and tomatoes will be too bothered as I have the air on it for what is worth anyway! Nice thunderstorm later that will clear the air hopefully!

      The last two days have been perfect for me, dry with sunny spells, warm but not hot; comfortable "t-shirt" weather, I can actually get something done in the garden without sweating buckets or burning to a crisp.

      This morning is again looking good, a bit chilly actually, but nice and fresh...lovely :thumbsup:

      Pretty cool her this morning but brilliantly sunny and the forecast is sun for the next 10 days with temperatures in the low to mid 20's.
