Hi both. 
Another very warm day. Probably the warmest so far.
My van was telling me 35 degrees on a couple of occasions, but it was consistently 28 degrees.
Got a couple of jobs done and also went into town to do some banking and get some stuff from my natural remedies place (Saw Palmetto etc)
My landlady rang and said the plumber should be coming in the morning, but she didn't know the exact time. Hopefully that means I'll be able to get some work done in the afternoon.
Both of you having BBQs today? I suppose it's definitely the weather for it? 
Hicky. You're not having much luck with these cakes? You must have a big number of them to eat now, you seem to make at least one a day. 
Pity your OH's arthritis is so bad she needed to take a day off work with it. 
Yes, I would think the glasses cords would be a good idea if you are juggling with two sets of specs.
That spa looks rather swish.
I don't think I've seen the flat side of the hedge cutter teeth wearing? Sometimes the teeth get little chips in them, if you hit a wire fence or something by mistake, and that might cause the flat side to need to be filed flat again. But i don't think it could wear as such.
As you say, it's maybe been sharpened wrongly.
Mollie. I didn't need the fan last night, but it's even warmer in the house this evening, so I can see me needing it tonight. 
Yes I'm taking lots of extra fluids at the moment.
That's enterprising of your Mum's carer, training to be a midwife.
You're lucky having the seafront close at hand like that.
Watched the England footie match. Disappointing performance, but I think they weren't really trying as they actually get a better draw in the next round by losing. 
Then watched Humans. (which, despite the title, is about androids )
