Probably the hottest day yet

I spent another lovely day at Donalds and gave my car a right good valeting. It's hard to see how so much of the country actually comes aboard until you get out of the driving seat, throw the doors open wide and get those car mats up. Tons of leaf and mud debris can get sucked into the vacuum cleaner.

Sticky Bud (or sticky willie as they are sometimes known but don't google this is my advice) seem to be taking over the hedgerows, setting up a barricade so even the hares can hardly get admission into fields.
