    Night @Pat E and Good late afternoon to ......anyone who isn't outside enjoying the day.

    Tied up and hoed/weeded tomatoes this morning before the heat, but had to abandon quest around 10am.  So shuttered inside again, reading!  By golly the bounty better be good next month - the heat is a killer!!

    Have a pleasant evening everyone.  This weather calls for a cold frothy drink!!  B)
    A good hoeing is worth two waterings.

    I don’t need to watch the footie … I could tell that we’d scored from the cheering across the way 😂 
    I’ve got the tennis on and the goldfinches are providing musical accompaniment 😎

    'Perhaps we should draw a line on this discussion ...  I'll end it by saying I'm with the late Jonathan Sacks when he said ".....'

    I think I'd said what I wanted to say at least twice (as is my wont) - so you're right to draw a line...BUT (and there's always a but!)...and maybe this should be on the 'Is there a word that presses your button' thread (or maybe on the Curmudgeon thread), I really (personally - who else would I be talking for?) dislike constructs like that - where someone  draws a line and then continues a discussion by having 'the last word'. Don't you find that annoying as well ? Said (typed) with a smile on my face....

    I think you both make some valid points @steveTu @Dovefromabove but shall we call it a draw for now ;) 

    I'm watching the tennis in between the football matches here. Reffed a game this morning in the sunshine. It was too warm for me to be plodding around but it's clouded over now. Unlike the rest of the world, it seems :o

    Hi all

    Hope you have all been having a lovely time in this fab weather.

    The wedding was great, only 30 people, which must have been difficult for the couple, but I thought was a lovely number.
    There were 2 ceremonies, an English civil ceremony and then a Muslim ceremony, our nephew married an Iranian girl.
    We then had a Persian meal, which was ace.
    Thought about you @Dovefromabove as the pub we stayed in, served Ghost Ship ale, very good it was. The pub was in Dedham, Essex, I don't know whether you know it.
    How can you lie there and think of England
    When you don't even know who's in the team

    Oh yes @punkdoc … that’s Constable Country, a beautiful part of the world … spent part of our honeymoon in Lavenham when I married Wonky’s Papa a very long time ago.  You were only 15 minutes from @WonkyWomble’s garden and just over an hour from here. Glad you had a lovely time and enjoyed the Ghost Ship. 
    Much luck and happiness to your nephew and his wife. 😊

    Evening. 

    It’s been a cracking day here. Thank you for reminding me about the tennis when I peeped-in earlier. Looking forward to Wimbledon now. 

    Have a pleasant evening all.
