The garden that I work in is having a charridee open day today so I'll be out this afternoon in me shorts and 2000ad T shirt showing old dears round the herbaceous borders and sipping earl grey and eating strawberries and cream...don't worry tho' I've got a crate of stella in the fridge for when they all bog off :)

I've just come back from my extended clan's annual gathering, and very pleasant it was too, sitting in blazing hot sun all afternoon drinking beer...
My brother's hosting it next year, so it'll probably piss down, knowing his luck.

This weekend, your mighty ruler moved into the new Trout Towers, and truly it is splendid!
A good-sized garden, plenty of room to fill the house with comics and related crap, and gorgeous countryside all around.
Fantastic!
My first purchase after moving in - before a fridge and a washing machine, even - was a barbecue, and it's already been used twice.
(The shed's still huge, Pete, if you want to move in.)
ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY FISH IN HIS CASTLE!

Saturday was indeed a very sunny day... just the weather to be wearing a tuxedo & bowtie all day...
My brother's wedding went very well & hangovers all round Sunday morning (with a fair bit of retching from Oddgirl, poor lass!).

I hereby proclaim my weekend to have been a roaring success.
Venturing out into the jungle that is my garden, I used a disposable BBQ for the first with great success. All were happy with my grilling skills - tho the sausages were a little overdone and no-one touched the trout fillets I'd spent half an hour preparing :o(
After much beer we all retired.
Sunday was too f*cking hot tho. Stayed indoors and drew all day while looking after my migraine-affliected girlfriend.
Top weekend. Shame that this morning the sky is so murky it looks like it's been painted by Carl Critchlow.

Well - It's Monday, I'm off work (for a change), and it's blazing. I'm off into my (admittedly cramped) back garden to catch some rays & prod my plants.
I might even have a beer later.
Good things to those who wait, eh?

"Lovely day?" "Lovely day?" My arse! It's horrible- at least 27 degrees here, and frankly that doesn't sit well with two elder goths trying to take their two week old gothlet for a stroll around the park. I have fac50 sunblock on, pvc trousers and NewRocks, so while the fault may be mine own, I still feel obligated to rant at the sky.
Bring on the rain, bring on the clouds, bring on the gloom.

Ashen-faced, eyeliner wearing, pvc, silk-and-leather-clad, huge booted sports-phobics, like me and the lady, will be dancin' in the streets if it rains ANY TIME NOW.
But, hopefully, not before 9am tomorrow, cos I have a new job to go to in the morning, and I'm "not exactly sure" where it is (read: Haven't a sodding clue) and so will be wandering around like a drenched git if it did.
