Good morning all ... and now it’s Flaming June already, in this strangest of years  ... onwards we go my friends ... preparing for the worst, hoping for the best, and holding each other’s hands as we head into the unknown ... with ice cream 🍦 😋

    Good morning @Fairygirl ... have a good walk ... it’s a beautiful morning ... I’ve been padding around the garden in my dressing gown and bare feet. 
    Im trying not to wake OH too soon as he’s back to work today ... and he’s in charge for the whole day and has all the new procedures to get used to.

    Hope his day goes smoothly. Sunny again here too, so I'll get out now before it's far too hot.... ;)

    Hubby used a couple of overripe bananas to make a loaf.  Naughty sweet stuff 😋, but I allowed myself a small slice. (Don’t tell myself doc). 🙄

    Morning all. 
    Went back to bed at 5am and got 2 more hours . Hurrah. 
    Good luck and love to OH @Dovefromabove.
    @Fairygirl, I hope you've had a good walk and not to many bampots to upset you.
    Keep Warm @Pat E and Mr E.
    Devon.

    That was handy @Hostafan1 - a wee snooze  ;)
    No bams today, thankfully. They'll all be getting ready to go out now  :D

    Have you got your thermals on @Pat E?
    The banana loaf will cheer you up anyway. Fairylet got me some sultanas the other day with the shopping, so I might do a teabread.

    Morning all and pinch punch, I got up at 3.48, I toyed with being the first, on here, it was just getting light, I sleep on my front ,sinuses block up, I needed water,already 21c by 7 0 clock, another scorcher, have already watered some of the stuff (in the shaed) watering twice a day now.  My learned friends does anyone know where I can buy one of those water carts they use in store like B & Q, looks like a wheelie bin, hose atatchment, am guessing some kind of pump, or even what they are actually called, I tried looking them up, was given sites and pictures of tankers some for water, a lot for oil.  We have 3 hoses to get to the bottom of our garden, and its now divided into "rooms", plus fruit trees, its so difficult to water, 6 water butts pretty much empty, keeping a little for my 30 orchids.
