Hot

 Back to the medical centre first thing...the results turned up...one receptionist didn't think they were to go in with the rest of the paperwork. Fortunately this morning the regular one knew they were...

By 9am it was getting decidedly hot.

Today has been mostly indoors, shutting the hot side and opening whatever window would let in any cooler air.   I think we got up to 26⁰ degrees at least.

A little more tidying and weeding was done at teatime...in the shade! Then picking Alpine strawberries, and the red and white currants that were ripe enough. If I leave them to ripen properly the blackbirds eat (and spoil) the lot.

A few broad beans were a nice addition to supper..and as I prepared  supper I had front and back doors open to catch the breeze that had lifted..and the house cooled nicely.

More work in the garden after supper...until the midgies came out! Next door's laurel bush is becoming a tree. I need to get it back behind the fence line. Soon the phone company will want him to cut it back as it it growing towards the phone lines.

Sky at 10pm tonight. 

looking out of the back of the house the moon is a half circle . I didn't photograph that.
