It'll be our turn later tonight.

Been with us since 10:30 this morning, and, still here

Yup - been raining here all afternoon
however, we have had a fair amount of the stuff in the last few weeks - mostly overnight

I do note that the ground cannot be properly wet yet as the temperature is not hot and the canal paths are still dry

Hope it went well.
If it’s anyway reassuring, my in-laws ( both in their 80s ) have both had their boosters with out any reaction.

MrsD is feeling rough now.

The ground here looks and feels wet, but at a spades depth its bone dry.

Well, the good news (well, startling, tbh!) is that we came second in our pub quiz….
….the bad news is that the mouse is back 😱
Got surprised 2 nights ago by one appearing in the little lounge. Managed to corner him, got him in an empty beer box, picked up, spun him round to stop him climbing out whilst lobbing him out the front door. Felt like a job well done…..
….but really I should have properly trapped him and driven him miles away….he’s back hiding behind the TV unit.
Or maybe it’s a relative.
Who knows 🤷‍♂️
What I do know is that tomorrow is now Operation Evict Mouse Day 🐭🪦

Morning. It’s dark.

Cat fed, big mug of decaf while I browse before heading out for a walk.

Rain overnight, tomatoes are still reluctant to turn red ( we planted seeds from some delicious IOW tomatoes from our local greengrocer)
I need some “ smart casual “ trousers so I’ll wander on down to our local Next shop for a browse.
Have a peaceful day folks ☕️☔️👍

Good morning from a dry and bright Coventry.

Morning all.
WoW.... ..it is a cold start to the day.
My Bro and SiL are about to board a plane and heading to Menorca.
I may have to go to Currys as it looks like my shredder has died. I will have one more try at resurrecting it first.

Good morning all.
We have rain. The cats were a bit reluctant to go out , but they scuttled off anyway. A damp dog walk will be had today.
My rear wheel will be going to the LBS this morning.

My rant of the day.---- Barnet high street is again totally clogged with traffic because of more works going on. This has been going on all year. One lot gets finished, a week or so later another lot starts. It's gridlock out there. Traffic is trailing back in all directions trying to get into or through Barnet.
4 bus routes are turning short, all the alternative side roads are blocked, and once you get through Barnet, the main roads to St. Albans and Potters Bar also have temporary lights on them. The St. Albans road works have been going for 7 months! Grrr. My MP Has been emailed. Rant over.
Enjoy your day everyone.
