Good morning everyone from Northampton where the sky is still grey, but the sun is beginning to burn through. I have been out already this morning (at 6.30am!) to post some.birthday cards before I go away next week. It was distinctly cool and fresh which was lovely. DBiL turns 80 next Wednesday, so I didn't dare miss that one, then two nieces' birthdays shortly aftetwards. Difficult to believe these DNieces are both now over 50! I remember the excitement when they were born, especially the elder, my first niece, and first GC for my parents!
The cats are not happy with me at the moment as I had to give them their flea/worming treatment yesterday before they go to the cattery on Monday. They spent the evening skulking in the downstairs cloakroom and study, and have given me a wide berth this morning. They will get over it.
Nothing planned for today, just see how I feel in this heat. Didn't sit out yesterday, as it was too hot, even in my shady place. Will read the papers, do the puzzles then carry on with my book.
Rest up on this hot day, folks, and try to take it easy.
