If you don't live in the UK you won't believe my next statement; yesterday it was too hot to go to the plot!
We had intended to get a second afternoon weeding and tidying at the allotment but decided that if we did we would probably fry - and so we stayed in the garden to mooch about a little.
Martyn's mooching was a bit more productive than mine as I spent time mainly doing very little. This time the summerhouse was actually used as a shady place to sit rather than as a shelter. I did venture out though and take a few photos which I will sprinkle in between other posts over the next few days or so.
This is a photo taken of the underside of one of our ferns - I think it's a lady fern.
An interesting photo. It did spit a bit of rain here yesterday & it is over cast today. Still warm though.
ReplyDeleteNo rain here awpol but it has looked as though it could thunder!
DeleteWell, there's a turn up for the book - too hot for the plot! Whatever next?
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean though. Our climate doesn't really justify the installation of domestic air-conditioning systems, but yesterday was one of the rare occasions on which I wish we had one. Our temperature was over 31C. At least I can be thankful for having aircon in my car, because I have spent a lot of time on the M25 recently.
How did we ever manage with cars without air-con, Mark? No doubt summer will soon hide away again.
DeleteToo hot?! Wow.
ReplyDeleteIt's very cold and wet here. But it's winter, so I'm not complaining.
I was wondering what the picture depicted - before I read your caption - and was way off. I thought it might be something to eat. Caviar garnished with crispy fried garlic slices or similar. On a bed of very thin vermicelli. Teeheee...
So, thank you, for a totally different, and educational, photo. :)
It is incredible isn't it VG - it's one extreme or the other with us but maybe my too hot is your just right as I don't suffer heat gladly!
DeleteIt's the teacher in me - can't get away from the need to educate.
That is some photo! I couldn't figure out what it was by just looking at it. I was thinking some sort of berry.
ReplyDeleteI thought it looked like clusters of berries too Kelli.
DeleteTo add I suppose in common with berries they are fruiting bodies!
DeleteI thought you had set about creating an art project to keep yourself occupied in the heat Sue...very unusual and pretty
ReplyDeleteI'm always into art projects Tanya
DeleteToo hot? Hope you got a chance to enjoy the warmth. Last week it dropped to under 9 degrees in the greenhouse one night . . . brrr.
