Corr! What a scorcher! Yes we were hit with a hot day, just right for the double birthday party for Kelli’s son and mum. for once it was too hot to work, although I did collect two furniture pieces from a lady up the road who wants them refinished.
I wanted to cut the grass but all the batteries were dead. I was very angry at myself because I alway put dead ones on charge, so I had to leave the back garden half cut.
I was planning to get more gravel, but I said “sod that for a game of soldiers” and changed into some lighter clothes.
The family gathering was successful, gifts were received and stories told, as usual I didn’t understand what they were talking about, I sat there getting hotter and hotter. However the cake was great, Kelli made and apple sponge which I devoured enjoying every mouthful.
