As I am at work, I shall vanish into a long tunnel to keep cool and inspect it for the usual things. So if I happen to miss the blooming football all well and good.
I shall at least be keeping cool while all around will have hot heads. ;D

Cooking birthday cakes, packet mix with granddaugher, while her Dad and Mum go to the silly pub to watch the silly football.  I just love tennis, but hope England win the footall, too hot to go to the allotment today, got the fan on and all the windows open.  Talking to my lovely, lovely cat, that doesn't live here (ha, ha).  Very intelligent cat apart from trying to jump from the top windows (as they were open) to watch me coming back from the shops with more cat food.  Got locked out today and the cat was trying to open the front door to let me in.  OH was in bed asleep, went to shops too early, and they didn't open until 10 am so had to come back and out again.  My birthday yesterday, thank you for the good wishes, my daughter's today, going to cook salad and cake, my son's on Wednesday, all together.

Volunteering with National Trust it was very quiet  Not many people turned up.   I think that they were doing something else.  Was there something special on TV perhaps?
Tennis?

Oh they were Morris Dancing in front of the church this morning in the town square (which is actually triangular)  Was that something to do with it? ;D

Or were they waving their hankerchiefs around because they foresaw all the tears?

I was revising my sea weed id under a sail in the garden ready for a sea life test on thursday.

There was a lot of swearing and angry kicking of objects from the neighbours though.
