Woke up to blue sky with a big grey bit in the distance, it rained, sun came out, then it rained, now the sun is out but the garden is saturated. V bored, v frustrated, vv concerned I might not have any veg left come the Autumn. Waiting for the next wave of rain and knitting an Ender Dragon for my grandson.

Still grey here but less solid and a bit lighter. I am very wet and mucky because the garden is sodden and I've been potting and watering and I'm a mucky urch at the best of times.
OH's golf competition cancelled tomorrow cos the last 3 holes are flooded and the rest is too wet for trolleys and all those feet. I'd send them all out with 6" spikes on their shoes or wellies so they can aerate as they go - do something useful.
Forecast for tomorrow is dry so more gardening and then housework on Monday. Garden group at my place on Tuesday............cleaning, cake and lunch to prepare.
Don't tell anyone but I've just seen a ray of sunshine. Lasted about 20 seconds!

OH wants to know where you are scroggin? We have had a couple of tiny quick showers, mostly from a beautifull blue sky. Went to visit a gorgeous garden open in the old village in aid of the local Hospice.

Do I need to know what an Ender Dragon is?
