Hot days

 

Keeping the drying lawn tidy


We put the gazebo up in front of my workshop...pirate is mending our next door neighbour's bench and the shade is needed.



The roses are blooming well..the colours are difficult to show when the sun is so strong, they are far deeper!


The moon was a mellow yellow orange last night...and will be full tonight. Really beautiful.


It is even hotter today. I pricked on a few seedlings , growing them on ready for  planting out when the onions are lifted . If the weather continues like this, that should be in a week.

I retreated to the house midmorning. Plenty to do indoors apart from keeping cool!!

I still need to plant on some seedlings but I'm out of compost at the moment and can't leave the house because of my quarantine! ARGH!

I'm wondering what temperature is 'hot' for you! Those are some gorgeous roses....

Keeping cool seems to be top of everyone's wish list.

Molly it's surprising what you can get used to..in AotearoaNZ we were comfortable at what is considered Hot here...but there, friends have been complaining about 10 to 15 degrees being cold, which here is not bad!!

Yes, it all depends on what you are used to although I gather it really has been hot over there. When I spoke to a cousin this week on the Welsh Borders it was in the 30's which I consider hot here.
