Here on the south coast it is a beautiful day. Wonderful blue sky so it is really time to get outside rather than be posting on here!! Have a lovely day everyone
Yesterday was better than predicted - a few sharp showers, but nothing to write home about. Today? Dry and perfect for getting in the garden. Weeded all that stuff that has taken hold in the damp conditions . OH mowed the lawns. Picked courgettes ( some of which have turned into small marrows!) and peas - perfect with lamb rump served perfectly pink! Son away for the weekend, so shall do the weekly family roast tomorrow - and the forecast is for wall-to-wall rain. One step forward, two steps back!
Oh - and I sorted out the herb garden today. Sage has gone mad. It had over-run the thyme causing die-back. And who said that slugs and snails don't like the fragrant herbs? I found countless crunchies and slimies lurking - all dealt with by secateurs and crunching underfoot. Yuk!
had a dry morning followed by heavy rain and then dry after 3pm in east lancs but as turned chilly and a few thing are looking tired including me slugs and snails love it here i even found a slug in a lily flower urgh
Had the best of three falls with this board today, it would only give me the first ten pages no matter what I did. Signed in again after a tussle with the password and still having trouble, every holiday weekend I have the same problems.
The box at the side says Stockton on Tees light rain, "err no" full blown storm after a sunny morning, I had to lash granddaughters sunflower to a bigger stake as it was getting blasted. I took photo's for her to take to school although if she is here tomorrow will take one showing the flower is a lot taller than her, that should impress the Teacher.

Famous last words, Penninepetal, as said by the (in)famous Michael Fish!

Good morning all.
Another bright, but cooler morning, only going to reach 17c today, at the moment dry.
hope it last, as we have got lots of jobs to do,
David, love your little drawing/ cartoon, don't know quite what to call it.
