First, I found a hat full of money,
and then I was chased by an angry man with a guitar..?

Are you feeling ok Jack?

Yep! He didn't catch me

I was reminded today that yesterday was St. Swithin's Day . No rain here in The Wee Glen.

Rain forecast for Friday .

Things are looking a little parched here at the chateau. Near 6 weeks of rain would be an over reaction but the odd couple of days would do no harm

A common turn of phrase for Australians when they are pleased and happy is "we are stoked"
They certainly were today

'Stoked' - hahahahahaha - that's very good, Jacksparrow.
After a long slow recovery from the Super Over at the denouement of the World Cup we are expected to cope with The Miracle of Headingly. I'm back on the tablets and no mistake. 'Strewth, cobber. A unbiased cricket fan worshipping at the feet of Sir Ben Stokes.

Lots an' lots of cheap tickets available.

Oh ye of little wadyercall. Sir Ben and the Barmy Army will perform two more group miracles.

Horrible morning (see 'Weather' ). Dentist check and hygienist early morning ..... road works , access to dentist denied, had to park back there <<<< and walk through all that weather. Got wet and was not relishing return walk. To cap it all the hygienist pulled out a filling and I've got to go back tomorrow morning . 'Onestly, some days .....
