Yet another day over 40 degrees. I thought when it reached 46 I would surely die! All I can say is thank god for Gin and Tonic and air conditioners! Just when I think I will tizzy myself up with a bit of lippy, the makeup melts five minutes out the door and I'm back to feeling like a marshmellow over a fire. I found myself watching a british movie last night where it rained all week - bloody sad that I can't remember a week like that for years!

Thank you very much and I hope you had a lovely Valentine's Day too! Would you believe we had 2 days of rain - all I wanted to do was stand outside on the front verandah and smell it. Bloody wonderful.

I walk along the High Street and see all the designer clothes in the shops
I look down and see my faded jeans and worn out trainers
THE GRASS IS ALWAYS GREENER
I see the gleaming soft top sports cars speed by me
I climb into my beat up, rust spotted banger
THE GRASS IS ALWAYS GREENER
I jog through the open fresh parkland
And return through the litter strewn alleys and streets
THE GRASS IS ALWAYS GREENER
I drive past the fresh painted, well appointed houses with their neat gardens
I come to my scheme with its peeling windows, overgrown verges and paths
THE GRASS IS ALWAYS GREENER
I arrive home and see the smiling grubby faces of my bairns
as they play in our overgrown garden and run to meet me
THE GRASS IS NEVER GREENER
Except in your case Donna it probably isn't

I must say I rather like that! I am a strong believer that just when you think the grass is greening, you have a nibble and find it has been fertilised with a bit of BS!

They're usually up to something! At the moment I am burrowing away inventing heat resistant make up
