Tis a scorcher here  now. Lawns all mown. Some weeding done. Too hot outside for the time being . Rest and relaxation until I can get out in the shade of the trees

I'm not a lover of direct sunshine either, much prefer the shade. Just taking a breather in the shade of my coffee shop with a stem ginger biccy.

THIS IS NOT A WEATHER THREAD.

The weather here in Sheffield is glorious. I have made it out at around half eleven after having a night out on the pizza and artisan ales (a rare thing for me these days but I kept to half pints).

 

I see there is a car exhibition in the town centre, there is a yellow Audi R8, one of my favourite cars and a Tesla.

 

Hoping to have a good walk and take a few photos.

 

I know there is a swing band playing in a square later, may get a shandy and a seat and watch the open air dance classes. 

 

So, what are you all up to today and if you are reading later on, what have you done today - photos would be good. 

 

 

 

 

 Sounds idyllic EC

I'll be inside but I don't mind... watching Andy in the tennis and he's started well   Shouting gwwwooaaaannn and its only three games in...

  Good grief, poor Baz! 

Yes, you would need to be extremely careful now.

Aw Baz,  Sorry to hear that and hope you managed to enjoy your day all the same. I too avoid direct sunlight preferring a shaded spot.

I've been in the garden all afternoon but sitting under a parasol, with Factor 50 sunblock on.

I didn't have to, but I chose to
