I have never seen so much parched grass in the UK and also no water ban...the rain has been refreshing but I do like blue skies and warm sun at least some of the year ! another heatwave to go by August they say ! CB

I loved the rain yesterday and so did Bertie! However, it was torrential so I insisted he go in after a while. Beatrice didn't move from her bed.

It was surreal here, not a single tort about (which is strange as my Hermann's seem to love rain) It literally rained from morning till bedtime! Lovely again today. I only got back for about an hour or so lunch time&was ambushed on the path! (Making up for yesterdays lack of food!)

its so hot...I actually slept for hours due to the heat which I haven't done on this scale since working in Australia til 5am - I remembered I lived on cocktails and cola so I am adopting similar - the sugar boost is actually quite good for you - sugar is not all bad if you are under the weather or the weather is under you !!! think shock - first thing is cuppa and lots of sugar!! My tortoise hate me cause I just plonked them in their water bowls to eat adjacent.......CB
