    There is a cooling breeze over here in the East isn't there?

  • Oh dear.  Once the sun comes out, the clothes come off (not mine I hasten to add, Greenpeace would be scratching their heads wondering how I could be separated from my pod this far inland).  Someone ought to tell these women that

    A - buying a size 10 and squeezing your size 14 bust and bottom into it does NOT make you a size 10, and

    B - freshly cooked lobster is NOT a good look.  Especially when you have white strap lines on show from yesterday's strappy top.

    Oh, the joys of living in a mining/dorm village and not being one of the yokels.  Off to get a bucketful of factor 5000, think I have some vampire in my genes somewhere.

    This time next week I'm in Cornwall, staying at Pentillie Castle for a few days - I hope Verdun's wish for rain and cold isn't granted by Fairygirl's  Cornish cousins!image

    Or tell men that walking along the street with their shirts off is not a good look, particularly if they have a belly hanging over the belt.

    Why oh why did I build my veg plot at the end of my garden? 

    Now you mention it, why do we put them at the bottom of the garden? I don't know anyone who's done the sensible thing and put it by the kitchen door.

    I've found it very tedious getting home from work, and wandering round the garden with glass of wine in hand.

    Though, and only a gardener would say this, I'm worried that my water butts will run out if we don't get any rain image
