Its lovely Pixi, I hope this sun travels north for you...at the moment we're south of the north/south divide and I had to get the HOSE out..... but probably not for long....

Its looking lovely Pixi, its been another beautiful day here, in fact it was so hot I had to retreat to the bottom of the garden for some shade, its 8.45pm and I`m still in shorts and a suntop, I`ve even had a visit from a butterfly, too fast for a pic though......

24 Jul, 2012

A bit jealous of your water lilies, I`ve just got one lonely little one. The sun has been really fierce here today, had factor 50 on and was still burning so had to put a long sleeve cotton blouse on.
