dark light

Rain…please!

31 C down here today.
Grass is dead.
3/4″ cracks all over the place.
Flowers wilting like a wilting thing in Wilting university.
Water too expensive to use by hosepipe, and the Butt is empty.
The “Cold” tap water is 15 deg C for the initial run. (I geekily measured it).

I dunno, I fancy a crack at polo sometime. Providing I’m on the back of a Clydesdale….

Well, it rained. There were 6 or 7 droplets on my bedroom window this morning. But it’s been another scorcher. I love it, but I also like a Green Garden.

I thought the runway at Argyll would be too short for a Tornado???

An RAF Tornado F3 crashed in Argyll the other day Steve, locals have been complaining for years about the potential for disaster from the low level training sorties carried out in the area. This time unfortunately the crew did not get lucky.
