Good morning from a clear, much cooler Bristol. The temperature is about 15C which is lovely. My front door and bedroom window are open, making a wonderful through breeze.
Thank you from Iris who came second in her category. DD is in York at the General Synod and made a speech about the effect of global warming! (In her “wife” clothes, apparently! Not civvies?)
Me? Finished the quilt which I shall give my FAB cafe friend for her upcoming 70th birthday.
Tesco this morning - loads of shopping as I’m catering for the fete where I’m in charge/organising on Saturday. Baking of course.
I’m also going to try to talk to someone in my bank - any money transfer larger than about 2/6s is impossible since being scammed. Wish they had been so vigilant earlier!
Keep cool as we’re in for another week of murderous heat. Stay safe, be contented with your life…
Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. It is almost chilly in South Yorkshire this morning and very overcast. I didn’t think I would have time to post this morning as I’m going out early to catch a train to go to a funeral. I don’t like trains and I don’t like funerals but needs must. It’s going to be a very long day. Have the best day you can, folks.

Good morning from Malta where the forecast is for a sunny day with a high of 37°C again.

I enjoyed the Men’s Final yesterday, very glad Sinner defended his title successfully.

I’ve got my Treasures after summer school as DD3 has her course to go to so will look forward to seeing their happy little faces.

Another lovely quilt grandMattie, hope all goes well at your hospital appointment Mick, a belated happy birthday to Utbb and wishing everyone a good day. ☀️

Good morning, it’s beautifully cool here on my hillside in south Glos but presumably it’s another hot day ahead.
I love the quilt grandMattie, you really are very talented 😍
I have an audiology appointment in town at 9, I’ll leave plenty of time to get there because the traffic is awful first thing with major roadworks to navigate.
I need to get a few bits and bobs and go to the building society to pay in a cheque.
I rarely go into town nowadays.
A friend popped in for a chat yesterday afternoon, it was lovely to catch up with her.
Best wishes to all x

Good morning from s somerset

Iris did well, good for her

The window nets for shade won`t be needed today, the wind is cooling the house and the heat is on a slow decline. That constant warm intense wind yesterday was extremely difficult for the plants and lots of my leafy veg have been battered, they just cannot cope with water loss from the leaves

Today I will carry on from yesterday, mainly based in my sewing room and a walk is on the cards, first thing of course.
