How lovely is that!

Sat with a G&T listening to water trickling, wearing a sleeveless dress feeling warm and totally relaxed.

Absolute bliss, for me the evenings are the best, balmy but not too hot.
As for your first sentence I can only assume you are seated near a water feature or suffering incontinence. 🤣🤣

I could sit out here, too, but I’d need a warm fleece, socks and a blanket. grin

😄😄😄😄😄 both😮😮😮 getting old is no joke. But I am old enough to appreciate the simple pleasures.

Getting more mellow with each sip!

Absolute hell for me. I cannot think of anything worse than eating outside. I love Autumn the best.

We christened our new 'Italian Garden' this evening.

As people know we bought a project hosue last year and inevitable project houses come with project gardens. We razed the garden to the ground and had a large area paved and fenced some of it off, planted roses and lavender beds and containers round it and put a suitable table and chairs in the centre.

At lunch time it was too hot and sunny to use, but in the shade of evening, we sat in the cool of our formal Italian garden looking up the side garden to where, at the end, the tower of the parish church is 'framed' by the side walls of our bouse and our neighbour's house and agreeing, that we made the right decision when we pushed ahead with buying this house, despite our doubts and those of others.

I’m in Málaga it’s 9pm here
I came up from the gardens an hour ago to shower and make myself something to eat. I’ve just washed up (no dishwasher) and looking over the balcony there are 3 Spanish families still down there and 7 children are on the pool. 😊
The sun has dipped but it’s pleasantly warm.

Loving it.

I choose not to sit out, but my table is by my French windows wide open and now at 8pm the birds have started their evening chorus. My specs are off so I don't see the weeds overmuch 😉
It's so quiet here. I dont have "BBQ neighbours", its so peaceful.

I spent the heat of the day at the gym, as its got full aircon and friends for nattering.

You and me both SueD. It’s been a bit mixed here in Durham today.
