Choosing a chair to replace DH’s riser recliner (bought for his 6’ 4” height and long legs and totally unsuitable for short me) this morning and ear syringing this afternoon - actually quite a joyful day, especially if I can hear better at the end. Must organise myself for the next few days so that I can avoid being out when it is really hot though I must say keeping the house cool involves more activity than I had expected. Currently all windows at the front, in sun, are curtained and closed, those at the back, in shade, are wide open. Process reversed as the sun moves round. We will soon be lamenting the inevitable thunderstorms which will conclude the heatwave!

Many happy returns of the day to you ginny!
And happy WA to Mr & Mrs Topsy ?

Good morning from a sunny but cooler W Kent. Out and about whilst it is cooler, GD1 is off tomorrow for long holiday with her other granny abroad so dishing out the last of our Euros for her to take with her, we won't have any use for them this year.
Good wishes to all.

Good morning all from a sunny Black country.
Washing on the line and the garden watered will now catch up with everybody's happenings.
Best wishes to anyone celebrating, safe travels for those on the move and virtual hugs where needed.
Enjoy your Friday and may you all find some ?.

Good morning all from cloudy Harrogate- might have a spot of rain today.!
GM you are not getting forgetful, you have a lot to think about and have to think in a different way!
Would love to see Andre Rieu live,GDS enjoy!!
Happy anniversary Mr & MrsTopsy
I learnt this week my cousin has a brain tumour. She is the same age as myself and lives not too far away. The prognosis is not good. She list her husband 4 years ago, her son 2 years ago- how unlucky is that?
We had a lunchtime call yesterday to go to an afternoon tea at DGDs school. It was very pleasant. Have something else to go to this pm
Have the best day possible folks

Another lovely day here in Oxfordshire, bracing ourselves for an excessively hot few days, with a red weather warning now in place!
Lots of garden watering being done every evening and late dog walks. We've started to pick the first crop of tomatoes, early this year.
Thank you for such kindness, I do appreciate it, it is difficult to watch our DDs struggling isn't it Kittylester, but they will triumph and be healthy again and it will all have been worth it.
Weekend is almost here so I send you all flowers and sunshine

Greyduster commiserations! Take it easy and rest until it settles down.
Thank you all for your best wishes. I have just arranged some lovely flowers.
I must go and make sausage rolls for the freezer. The sausage meat and pastry are waiting for me in the fridge.
Make the most of this cooler day.
