That's where I have been goind wrong Sue - I have been at the iced 'wine' when it should have been the iced 'water' Drat, drat, no wonder I feel hot and 'squiffy' Dea x

Marie... i could do with some of your rain for my garden...its all shriviling up! Sue

It's B******** hot in South London!!!!! Too hot for house work!! (any excuse!!) So I thought it would be a good excuse to catch up on my family tree.... Deb

Dea... I was telling a bit of a fib...!!! didn't like to admit that I've got a glass of scotch and coke on the rocks!! blushes...lol... Sue

Dea, its terrible in Norfolk. Poor Ralph terrier has had sickness and the runs - I think its just so hot its made him feel ill. I went into my sons bedroom earlier - he has a hi tec thing that records outside temp - it was 40 degrees centigrade. I dont know what that is, but Im sure it must be over 90 because I havent been able to go outside the back door as it feels like an oven door opening and knocks you back. Only plus is that in my wild flower area I have two different types of orchids appearing.

Oh Heather.... Don't mention 'oven doors'...I'm trying to cook a roast!! wheeeww! I must be MAD!!!...lol ... Sue

A very heavy downpour here in mid Cheshire...starting to thunder!. Shucks I was just going to go out and do some gardening...oh well I suppose I will have to spend more time on here...every cloud etc....!! Linda

Sue, All I can say is - 'WHY ??????????' Dea x

Me too Sue, sod the family, you could have a stroke in this heat doing a hot dinner. Ive had some french bread, cheese and salad and thats it guys. I am on a diet but I reckon weekends is for a break, so Ive just eaten a Mars icecream. PLEASE everyone drink plenty of water. My dad and my mum in law had their first stroke in this sort of weather due to de hydration. Quite a few of us are of a certain age and it really does make sense to drink plenty of water while its this hot. I do wonder if those poor souls on general who have passed or become ill in the last few days (there has been so many) are being affected by the heat.

I did marinated chicken on the barbie - In this weather, if you are going to cook, it should be outside.!!!!!! Left over chicken + ham + salad for tea. Dea Xxxxxxxxxx

lol...yep I am MAD!! Hubby wont have a BBQ (must be the only man not to!) oh well...off to make the gravy...think i'll have another drink while i'm stiring! If I survive...I'll be back later! Sue.. Up date...Sorry...that was not how i meant it to sound..not good taste at the moment...this is a serious subject... Heather... yes thats very good advise about the water..

gone dark here,think its going to rain

Just watching everything subside,flash flood 50 yards down the hill two hours ago,and it smells really fresh out there. Glen
