It's been raining this morning, which is quite good as it is needed. Cloudy and grey now, ab out 12C, which is also OK , for a while. I much prefer the heat, but a day or two of cool can be nice.

While lying in bed reading and thinking and dozing off , I've enjoyed listening to the neighbour's two year old, little Tim , running about all over the place , laughing and sometimes crying. Where do these tiny tots get their energy from ? They are also quite clear about their feelings and don't hesitate to express. :)) Marvellous to be so uninhibited and so unconditioned. :yes: It's Tim's dad's 40th birthday today and they are going to have a party. I expect he's excited too.
