It was too hot to do anything on the allotment or in the garden today so I went for a stroll around one of our local reservoirs.
Now I know Johnny get on about his sunshine coast well I have to say I can claim I am from " Summer Wine" country aka the TV programme " Last of the Summer Wine"

This is a piece of land owned and made by the village trust it cost me a £1 a year to be part owner.
