Hello Sunshine

[velvet55]

Hello to you all, I hope you are enjoying the nice weather we are having at the moment. It lifts my mood when I see the sun shining.

I may be preaching to the converted but one thing I always do when it's hot in the house is to leave the lid on my loft open, it's amazing how much it cools the upstairs, and during the day I close the curtains on any bedrooms facing the sun.

After that I ignore the housework and retire to the garden, and sit under a large parasol, with a cold drink, a good book, a packet of biscuits, and my feet in a bowl of cool water.....Bliss.

Enjoy your day

Hi colours, I remember you saying that your neighbour decided to cut down some trees so you couldn't sit outside......mine has chosen today to chainsaw down a tall cypress hedge and hire a mini digger to landscape their garden.....fumes everywhere.

Enjoy your bikini day at the beach

Hi sounds like a good plan. I plan to take the dog to the beach today and chuck balls in the sea for her as she loves that. x

I have a bumble bees nest in my loft at the moment so its staying firmly shut. I opened it last week to get the suit cases for our holiday, switched on the light and was quickly joined by the new lodgers. That light was off and I was down the step ladder in record time shutting the loft door behind me.

Only 1 bee followed me down and it flew straight out the window. Whew! At least it wasn't a wasp or hornets nest . You see I always try and look for a bright side and I like bees anyway.

Things will have to stay pretty hot in the bedroom for a while, well temperature wise. Ha Ha.

I agree, outdoors in a shady spot with a cool drink is the way to go and maybe set up the hose pipe and sprinkler too.
