Too hot to type

The last couple of weeks have just been so hot. And, not to sound like a damp squid, but the last couple of days have been far too muggy and sticky for my liking.

I've been checking the temperature and, according to my car, it's been in the high 20s for the last week! So not good news for me but fantastic news for the children as they've been spending every available minute in our newly set up pool (I'll try and post a photo later).

Richard and I have always said that when we have weather like we are currently having there is no better place in the world to be than England. Lush green grass, normally a cool gentle breeze blowing, the sound of the birds singing and children splashing, ahhhhh, bliss.... preferably with me lounging in a garden chair, in semi shade with a very large glass of Pimms in one hand and a good book in the other.

Thanks everyone for all the comments left on my 'Canada or new bedroom furniture?' post. I think we have both pretty much made our decision we just need to verbalise it!

That's all for the moment. Posting will probably be sporadic at best whilst I take advantage of our glorious weather.

{Edited to add, for those of you who are concerned that I've filled up my pool whilst there is a hosepipe ban in Wiltshire, no need to worry the use of a hosepipe for the filling or topping up of swimming pools is allowed, I checked!
