Every day between these dates has been hot & sunny. Broken last night by a little rain leaving the conditions still very muggy however.
We missed all the thunderstorms that threatened in recent days.
My month has been a mixture of stress, frustration, despair & losing the will to live over the building of the Observatory and replacement windows. Quality of workmanship 100%, but the administration/communication 0%. A three week contract dragged on for over three months and still we are in need of nine replacement panes of glass.
Observatory was completed last Saturday so the last few days have been spent having a good tidy up before visitors arrive today and the family picnic on Saturday.
The break in Wales to celebrate Lorna's birthday was put on hold and all other events planned were cancelled. Compensation looms.
Despite the hot conditions the garden is looking at its summer best with loads of Butterflies, Dragonflies, Damselflies, Moths, Birds and now two baby Squirrels.
Once visitors depart in ten days time I will commence using my blog with photographs on a daily basis.
