yep we are on a sloping plot that is the top and it tiers down to the house !! 

Wow, that’s a park, not a garden! Looks great, is it hard to maintain?

In France today with clear skies, and mars, Saturn, the moon, Jupiter and Venus are all in a perfect arc across the sky 

Fantastic. Are you in a part of France that doesn’t have much light pollution? The night skies are certainty beautiful the moment (when you can actually see them). Might get the telescope out tonight.

thanks, it is very nice we have quite a few tress with TPO's on them so we can't just go cutting everything back - it is a huge task planting and mowing etc which I am presently happy to do myself but that might change !!

It’s nice to have some mature trees, beautiful. I bet it’s hard work, do you have one of those ride on mowers lol

The partial moon looks beautiful tonight, low in the sky and orangey coloured. I would echo the sentiments about what a lovely day it has been. We walked along the river to Kingston and it was perfect sunny conditions with a light warm breeze; this evening was so pleasant after the gym at 8.30 that we took the dog out for a nice long walk at sunset - it was so warm it took him an hour to cool down bless him (that's frenchies for you).

Up really early again, to escape the muggy air in the bedroom, despite our fan being on full blast. It's no wonder looking at the current dew points.

Nigh on 16c, in the area. Really can't wait for the forecast fresher air to reach us, at the end of the week!! Hope the forecasts don't backtrack, on that.

Roll on Autumn, as far as I'm concerned. 

Going to sit under a fan and do some more work, on my "Fantasy" Competitions.

Regards,

Tom. :hi:

!! No ride on mower just an electric one which has batteries and you charge so it’s quite light but powerful ...!

Was a beautiful evening in our part of the world last night - the breeze and the clear skies was a real Costa del Cobham evening !!

I’ve just popped over to the mod thread, it’s scary to hear them talking about the weather turning autumnal. It doesn’t seem like it was that long ago we had snow. The summer seems to have flown by that I feel like we haven’t even had one even though it has been a unusually hot one. The nights are drawing in, the kids holidays are nearly over. What is going on????

But dark nights equate to lamp-post watching!

I don't think I'll bother too much with what's in the MAD thread, Donna; a day-or-three's cooler weather does not an autumn make!:D

It can do anything apart from being 32c again and 80mph winds. Other than that I have a rain coat or a cardie.

Cloudy, rainy looking.

Having to make Bird suet cake, a bird bath a bird feeder and a rain gauge, for a brownie badge.

Hoorah.

Reasonable day here, some sunny spells but rather a lot of cloud, too. Currently pleasantly warm at 24C with moderate WSW’ly winds.
