Thank you for the Dance Lorna, I have just been in the garden with my book and bikini tempting the clouds to give me a good soaking but they are not taking the hint!

Thank goodness there is not a hose pipe ban here ....

YEs! Rain stopped play. We had chicken korma stir fry instead. But it's great to have wind and rain and coolness. Mmmmmm. :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

On the other hand the whole garden is still parched, the grass is brown, the goldfish have developed a dry, hacking cough and I'm not even going to talk about the lottie. ;)

Off topic and talking of goldfish, couldn't resist taking a pic of this menu on hols recently. Click on pic and read 2nd choice under pescado.

Needless to say I had the vegetarian option. ;D

Goldfish are a sort of ornamental carp, and the normal ones used to be farmed in medieval times. So they should be good to eat, though they're a bit small. If it strictly is goldfish, of course, and not standard carp!

We had a bit of drizzle this afternoon; it perks things up, but one dry day and it's back to square one.

nippie · « **Reply #58 on:** August 01, 2006, 10:04:02 »

It has rained so hard here over night and this morning that most of my flowers have either been beheaded or flattened :'(
Beautifull sunshine now :)

Robert_Brenchley · « **Reply #59 on:** August 01, 2006, 11:07:03 »

There may have been another shower last night, but I'm not sure; if it did, it's had time to dry up. Hopefully it should rain again today. But everything's still parched.
