The Longest Day!!

Yestrday was the longest day actually, I suppose it should be the height of midsummer. We should be sitting on the patios enjoying the evening air. Well!! What a day today. It is tipping down with rain, and blowing a gale. We have the heaters on everywhere we go. I think the little cats think it is Winter again because they haven't been out, or moved from their baskets much today either. Don't really blame them. Next door's garden is full of stuff they have bought clearly for the good weather, and even the poor little solar powered butterfly isn't going round today. i bet their conservatory is noisy in all this rain too! That's the trouble with plastic roofs the noise is terrible. we stayed in a cottage once with one and it was dreadful, we couldn't stand it. obviously vin isn't out in his garden today, he would be drowned in a few minutes! he went to Waitrose for the weekend things this morning, said it was moderately busy. he must have whizzed round there because he was back in an hour. Speedy Gonzales. The poor little flowers are struggling in all the rain. And, what did Vin buy some weeks ago? yes a new hosepipe fitting etxc... Tonight we are having: Cheese and onion pasties from waitrose baked tomato Rice puddings from Waitrose..just gorgeous.
