Thoughts of the day every day in 2013

17 July

I am enjoying this summer - though it is a little warm at times

I asked you jjmuneer:

WHICH of my comments do you disagree with and WHY ?

I thought that we could engage in some real grown up discussions - apparently not because he did not answer a single one of my comments

I have noticed that far too many men on here make a fuss when I stand up for - or mention things told to me by - KURDISH WOMEN

Odd really when ones thinks of how many people actually view the topics on RBK - very few people comment on topics - write something in Support of Kurdish women and all of a sudden KURDISH MEN WAKE UP

Still lovely and hot in England

If I get many more freckles they will all join together and I will turn brown

19 July

Still lovely weather - out most of the time - this is England it could freeze next week

Walking much better now - limp hop OUCH! limp hop OUCH! limp hop OUCH!

Major project coming up so going to relax and extend my holiday until it rains

Quote from yesterday:

Forget next week - very cold TODAY

Thick clouds and strong winds - clouds are supposed to dissipate in heat of sun - supposed being the operative word

I am not going out today until the sun comes out

Here weather is fine and sunny.

woah very beautiful birds ! I wonder what is their specie.

When birds make their nest on my window they are always ugly huge pigeons.

I was dreaming that a grass ticked my nose. I opened my eyes and I saw cat's eyes staring me and his mustaches in my nostrils : 'GET UP TIME !'

They are Swallows - they looked so sweet all in a row

Does the big black furry monster always wake you up this early for his breakfast

WOW it has been another very hot day

I am so glad that I do not live in a built-up area - I hate to think what pollution levels are in places like Manchester or London - only nasty smell out here in cow-pat land is the smell of muck spreading on the farms (cough cough cough) - cow-pat land = countryside with lots of cows

I have not seen a pigeon for many years - sorry Piling

There are a few draw-backs to country living:

People are being urged to take extra care in the heatwave to help stop wildfires from breaking out.

"Barbecues left unattended, disposable barbecues discarded after use, and glass jars and glass bottles can often cause fires - the sun's rays are magnified by the glass."

There have been hundreds of fires and he said they are getting worse.

Mr O'Rourke said: "We are very concerned at the moment. They're becoming more and more frequent."

His advice for people: "If they're throwing something away that has been on fire - a barbecue - just be a little bit more careful. Discard their waste properly and take stuff home with them. And if they see anything dial 999 straight away."

The heatwave is continuing this weekend, with north-west England and western parts of Scotland feeling the most heat.

Weather forecasters say temperatures could hit 30C in those areas on Saturday.

The whole of the UK should see plenty of sunshine, but the east will be cooler - with temperatures falling as low as 17C.

Next week is set to get even hotter - the mercury could climb to the mid-30s!

I think that lots of people are waiting outside the hospital in the heat in the pollution in a UV of 9 becoming sunburnt collapsing from dehydration

Will it be a girl or boy? I think boy called James or John

What do you think?

The baby comes in late like a diva : so a girl.
