    My iPad overheated, I take it in the garden with me and listen to audiobooks on YouTube, the thing just put up a warning sign then switched off! 

    Take note of this weather because when  you’re snowed in, smashing ice in water butts and ponds, and then have rain from November to March, this will be a distant memory. Enjoy it while it lasts and live with the thought that we’ve all contributed to the moving Jet Stream, 😱😢🙄

    Last year we had rain from July to April of this year and I blame that on folk saying "it's tooooooooooooooooo hot " after we had 4 nice days in June.

    I found an odd shaped stick yesterday and briefly wondered why I'd kept it. Oh Yes! That's the one I used every morning to break the ice on the pond so that the tadpoles didn't suffocate!
