Weather heads up. on 14:21 - Jul 14 by jeera | If you're going to work through the night you're going to need a decent headtorch. All a bit concerning I have to say. My little lawn has shrunk and has crevices in it that go down several inches it's so dry. |
The weird thing is my own little garden is flourishing, but we've left it alone completely for the bees this year, so its now full of madly overgrown with aggressive bushes. Who knew a Passion Fruit plant could out-muscle Ivy for instance? Or that a bird sh1tting a pip from a blackberry would create a now-enormous thing which takes up half the garden?! Fascinating to watch the competition. Here it is - so proud: https://ibb.co/Ntk8pSg [Post edited 14 Jul 2022 14:46]

Although I am completely on board for leaving a section where possible to help out wildlife. I'm not sure this qualifies and falls more into the mismanaged and left to its own devices camp. Even the bees probably get lost amongst all that! Trim that up you lazy sod. Just be sure to have a good check first that nothing of note is nesting. You might even find Livingstone still roaming about. |  |

We haven't got to the chairs yet. Give them a good sanding and a repaint. Tablecloth for the centrepiece and you'll have something a bit more civilised. Get shot of the ashtray! |  |

Thankfully they are having a Cobra meeting over the weather, hopefully they will advise us to drink water, put on sun creme and stay in the shade - otherwise we are screwed. Pathetic! |  |

Weather heads up. on 11:22 - Jul 15 with 736 views | geg1992 | 06Z GFS now rolling out. 40C in this area. 42 in Lincolnshire Tuesday. What will be key is a front pushing through on Tuesday. Depending on the timing, it may limit the temperatures. Looks to be later in the day at present though. |  |
