Saturday - Almost the End of June

Mid Suffolk weather report - There's been all sorts of weather here this week including some windy weather Monday and  unexpected rain on Tuesday morning, - although not enough to do any good, predicted rain that didn't happen and then un-forecasted rain over Thursday night that I didn't hear but filled a water butt  plus some sticky humid with sunshine thrown in too and getter hotter - In other words a Very English Summer!

Bits of gardening were done, pastry cases made ready for quiches or maybe a Lemon Meringue pie - that would be good, 12 people at Keep Moving Group and my 3rd week of Arthritis exercise and management course - not sure it's helping as yet. Plus a very quick shopping trip to get cider vinegar for making pickles - more about that next week.

 I've enjoyed watching some of the Wimbledon qualifying on TV and found a series on the free Pluto channel called 'Flashpoint' which dates back to 2008 - 2012  and is a police drama from Canada. Really odd to see one of the main character actors (Enrico Colantoni) was also in 'Person of Interest' - a US thriller series from 2012 - 2016 which I was watching a few weeks ago. He must have gone straight from one series to the other - a busy actor. ( I looked him up and he's never out of work).

Had the first two small courgettes this week and the  first of the French Climbing Beans- so delicious.

Sorry I didn't reply to comments yesterday and apologies for my mop-heads being boring rather than beautiful!

It's supposed to be a hot (for England) weekend here with temperatures in the 30's C  [ I looked it up for US readers! (30°C × 9/5) + 32 = 86°F ] - so not a lot of galivanting will be done!

Have a good weekend, I'll be back Monday with the end of the month frugal/spending round up.

  2. I've just picked my first handful of beans this year too. Enjoy the weekend, keep cool!

  3. I really don't enjoy any temps over about 70 degrees tbh. Mainly because it's high humidity with it which I find suffocating.

    First flowers on my runner beans here.

  4. We're forecast high temperatures on Monday - not something I'm looking forward to, but some will love it and bask in the sun.
