    Lovely sky @Pat E. I’m hoping we will have clear skies for the Full Moon tomorrow evening, although thundery showers are forecast so could be very atmospheric!

    Love that Cosmos @chicky - they are one of my favourite flowers as pretty, bee-friendly and repeat flowering. I will definitely be sowing more next year so will look out for ‘cupcakes’. 
    My garden and I live in South Wales.

    It’s going to be cloudy and possibly rain tomorrow night, typical, Mars will also be much redder as it’s close to the moon.

    Pretty sky, Pat.  Like wisps of candyfloss.

    I can see why you like that cosmos, Chicky :). I've never grown cosmos... Might start.

    Having found my weather station thingummy, I'm enjoying finding out actual temperatures in the garden rather than just relying on the more general weather sites. Currently 33° in deep shade. 46° in  the sun a little while ago. 

    Had a more detailed read of Bow's tour schedule last night. Am going to have to keep repeating to myself that she'll enjoy it, it's amazing, and stop worrying about how she won't get any sleep / will be exhausted. I know adrenalin will keep her going but... eek. 

    Catching up with old Beechgroves now.

    Well, what a morning. My sat nav thingy took me down a road ( no signs to say there might be a problem ) it got narrower and narrower, the grass in the middle got wider and wider and taller and taller until I gave in, switched the engine off and walked until i could see where it met a "proper" road. 
    Later it tried to turn my down one way streets the wrong way.
    Glad I'm home.
