We've got rain! I was just getting to the end of a watering lap and heard thunder. That rumbled for a while and now we've got quite a heavy shower. Aren't weather forecasts wonderful?
I've been dipping in and out of The Women's Hundred - very entertaining. Pity that the Manchester Originals lost to the Oval Invincibles. Its the men tomorrow night so maybe the result may be reversed. I wish I had some rain here!
Cacoethes: An irresistible urge to do something inadvisable
We had heavy rain for a while yesterday but the big ash tree shielded nearly the whole of the large woodland border - hardly a drop got through. Driza bone under there. Watered the new hedge and the small shrubs tonight - stuff has to toughen up in this garden!
I like ETTC because I'm nosy too. Always thought I'd quite enjoy working for an estate agent as the person who shows people round houses. However, the viewings we did when we were looking for this house 10 years ago put me right off that idea. I mean, come on - knowing you have people coming to look round your house - who would leave last night's dinner plates on the living room floor or clothes all over the bedroom or leave the lawn uncut with dog turds all over or not even bother to flush the toilet....?
There are some very slack homeowners out there. If they can't be bothered to tidy a house when they're trying to sell it - it doesn't give you any confidence that they'll have kept on top of more important home maintenance does it?
Heaven is ... sitting in the garden with a G&T and a cat while watching the sun go down

SGL Sitting under the tree is a perfect spot, hope OH managed his Pilates ok,
