    Morning Woo and everyone. Such a lovely day yesterday I thought I'd get an early start today and got up an hour earlier. Then all I've done is sit drinking tea for an extra hour. Still it looks like another cracker is on the cards but I could really use some over-night rain now to replenish my water butts. Can someone have a word in the right corner to arrange that please?:D

    Morning John:) Mr Kandy planted a load of plants at the weekend and now we are having to go out every night to water them.We could do with the rain as well to water them in and we only have one water butt so are having to use the hose pipe.:rolleyes:

    I expect by the end of the week they will be talking of hose pipe bans like they usually do:(

    Morning Woo, John, Kandy and all.

    Bubbling hot yesterday spent most of it in the garden and was rewarded will a fair old bit of sun burn but lucky for me it's already going brown, strange how Bob didn't get burnt at all and he's a ginger ninja!

    Looks like we are going to be another fine day today but it looks like Bob will have to start watering the garden this evening. Have a lovely day guys and girls and enjoy it while it lasts.:DHel.xxx.

    Another great day.

    Jimbo, youve got the right idea, I love early morning starts. A lot of my contract strimming work is done early starting at 6am that way by 9.30am its done and onto other stuff. Fantastic sunrises this time of day aswell.

    Morning Walnut and all.

    Another great day yesterday although in the night it was just a little too hot and sticky for my liking but then you can't have it all your own way. Looks like it's going to be another nice day although I'm sure it's not going to be as hot as yesterday!:)Hel.xxx.

    Bit cool at the moment but that is all set to change once the sun climbs upwards.It was really hot yesterday but at least we had a nice breeze which made it bearable.I am starting to wake up and feel refreshed now after my being down in the dumps with the winter.Enjoy your day everyone whatever you decide to do with it:thumb:
