    That would probably work for me - just let me know when you’ve found a date that works for you all.  Not sure when we are waving 👋🏻 littlest chicklet off to Sydney yet - apart from that late Aug looks pretty clear here

    Will do :)

    Flamin' 'eck it's hot out there  ... I've had to leave my planting and come inside ... it'll be a bit cooler later on when the sun's over the other side of the house.

    I'll have my lunch ... pickled herring and rye sourdough B)

    Good.  4 people's photos shold cover all aspects rather well.

    Hot here too now.   Had to put the sprinkler on in the tunnel to make the soil soft enough to work - very compacted on the side we just covered in cardboard last year and also full of fat white bindweed roots I shall have to fork out.   Maybe tomorrow am cos I'll just drip now.

    Been having a fine time since lunch reorganising data and restoring it to this new (to me) PC.  Such fun!  Off outside now.  Pots to move and gather for more efficient watering and pest removal while they wait for new beds.

    I am on a tram. It is swelteringly hot.

    I’ve planted up some more containers and done more watering ... now I’ll find my knitting and watch the racing ... just saving this shoulder from lugging compost bags about.

    I'm going to a party where the (optional) dress code is 'a touch of tartan'. I've only got a woolly scarf, some flannelette pyjamas, or a shopping trolley. Perhaps I should go for all three?

    I think so @LG_ sounds a good look ... and we insist on seeing the photos 🤣
