  You yourself have noted - correctly - that the world's going to hell in a hand basket. Or should I say the worlds going.....? ::)

That's why we want out of this rat race!

You old Hippie you ;D

Oh Angie, you poor thing. I can see why thunder and lightning would be a real fear for you. What a terrible thing to have happen.

If you're not using your Aga, can I have it? ;D

Officially 38.4 ºC here - which means it feels a lot hotter. At least there is a very faint breeze, but it's not very good for plants in pots!!

25C and muggy mid-afternoon here. It's been grey all day with thin drizzle off and on.

18oC here. After gardening my weeds after lunch I tried to sit outside and read. Too cold, even though there was intermittent sunshine!

Well Rogan, didn't get the chance yesterday as by lunch time it was drizzling. That type of Scotch mist that soaks you to the skin and chills you to the bone, but is totally useless for watering the garden. I decided if I was going to chill I might as well do it in front of the TV watching the cricket! 8) It was then I noticed the radiator in the sitting room was warm. What is it coming to when the temperature inside is so cold it clicks the heating on?!! ::)
