My bird-bath, probably. Every time I fill it up, a couple of them think it's a good idea to sit in there & flap the water out..

Good morning 
boy it feels warm this morning. I haven't checked the temperature yet but it feels a lot warmer inside than other mornings. Slept for eight hours. I knew I was tired.......
I have blackcurrants and redcurrants to top and tail and some digging to finish off a bed cleaning job, on the allotment! I didn't get to clean bikes yesterday so hopefully this afternoon.

Watch the teeth!
I have had a 9 mile walk. Fortunately we had a misty start here so it stayed quite cool for my walk. That’s the sun breaking through now.
Good morning all.
A cloudy start to the day here, but still quite warm.
A day of an early dog walk, domestics and a bike ride a little later on is the plan so far. Our Daughter is calling in at some point today, where she lives she doesn't really have anywhere to hang out a big wash, so she borrows our line.

I think I've got my new phone set up now, but what a palaver!
The initial set up was straightforward - copy a QR code and let the new and old phones communicate with each other; it's some apps that caused problems. Either they were incompatible or they required numerous hoops to jump through in order to sign in.
The new one signed me out of all my cctv, NSI, banking, music and video apps, as well as PayPal & Ebay amongst others.

Morning.
Blimey it's hot. Bit of mare trying to sleep. Given we rarely get such lovely weather it's a bit churlish to complain but it is hot! I'm glad not having to work in this weather.
Oh well, back to normal from tomorrow apparently, cooling off and some rain on way.

Still a bit muggy out there, albeit not to the degree it has been.
Spotted an unauthorised traveller encampment on my morning patrol with Bruce, so I've put my unpaid councillors hat on and done some form filling and notified the local constabulary. The travellers dont realise it but the land they've chosen was heavily chemically contaminated in the 1950s and 60s, hence it being neither farmed or built upon. I expect they'll know by lunchtime when the dibble tell them.
