It's like November here  :'(  very grey, windy and freezing. The beautiful rose bush has lost a lot of its new blooms.  >:(

Please ladies don't vote to leave the EU. I desperately need to look forward to retiring somewhere like France or Spain as I so desperately need sunshine. If we leave, anyone living there would have to pay 100% of health costs, which means unless you're super rich, you can't. At present, as EU citizens, you self fund for 5 years, then you are on the state health care under EU law.
(I don't understand why the UK doesn't just implement EU law like other states do? It's not possible any more for me to go to live in France and go straight onto their excellent NHS. It used to be but they changed domestic law).

Sorry to get sidetracked. I just crave sunshine. An elderly woman I go to hop about class with lives 6 months of the year near Valencia. She told me just how much it's helped both her and her husband's health. The Norwegians (always on about being like Norway here  ::)) encourage their retired to go and live in warmer climates, then they pay their health costs in mainland Europe as they save on health costs!!

Bad weather = oldsheep ranting. Sorry.

Cold cold cold but not windy anymore.

Last night was shocking. My son called me last night to say that parts of Glasgow had power cuts due to the wind and also thunder and lightening.

When we had a little tomato tent we attached it to a fence to stop it blowing away. You could also use tent peg things.
Mind you we are up a big hill overlooking the sea so it gets pretty windy up here.

Hope your toms are ok.

rush outside and enjoy it while it lasts!

it's nice here now this evening although breezy. It was freezing until about 3pm though. Awful summer so far, just the odd day that's been good (last weekend).

Lovely, still sitting outside right now.

It's hardly dark at all at night now. I was in the garden last night with the dog about 11:30 and it wasn't dark.
I love this time of year....if the sun shines.
