    Cooler today.  Only 30C so far and we've had about 12 rops of rain from a very thin cloud cover.  Tomorrow's downpour has now disappeared from the forecast.   Thought so.

    @Busy-Lizzie - chubby babies are lovely.  They need all that energy to burn when they start crawling and then cruising round the furniture.   

    Off to do an SM raid soon then a bit of dead heading of roses and, if it stays this "cool", maybe a bit of hoeing.  How do weeds germinate and grow in this dry heat?

    Anti-histamine creams and pills @Punkdoc?

    Lots of bitey blighters here and flipping painful when they mine for my blood but, so far, no huge swellings or itches, she said, touching wood.

    SM raid done and stashed away.   Clouds gone.  Jolly hot now so hiding indoors with shutters down till at least 6pm.

    They were taken @Obelixx and I promptly fell asleep, probably a good thing.

    My guess is that we're going to hear a lot of the word "unity" .
    There will be no unity in the country any more than Thatcher " sorted out those inner cities" and gave her Francis of Assisi  speech.
