Hey, all!   Can't take anymore heat for the day. I'm in until I have to feed. Stay safe!

Yeah. I can understand that. It felt like I was back in SC this morning it was so muggy. Current temp is 84/29°, warmer than forecast and even though the relative humidity has lessened it still feels like 87/31°. We've spent most of the day indoors though I am about to venture out for groceries.

They're generally not locked into cardboard boxes and taken to evil places like the vet's.  It's also their choice to jump into a box vs being shoved rudely into a carrier.  All my other cats have never minded the carrier. They would go right in when I opened the door.  These guys fight to the death...   

Hopefully not literally to the death....

Spoiler

This is my first harvest of carrots this year. The variety is Paris Market 5 (Atlas), a variety that yields short, stumpy, bite-sized carrots, not much bigger than a large radish. They have the advantage of being fairly quick growing (the seeds were sown on 5th June).

I also have another row of Chantenay 'Red Cored', which is a more traditional variety, growing much longer carrots (which I suspect might appeal more to clo ). They are intended as my main-crop carrots, being able to withstand temperature as low as -5°C/23°F, so should hopefully keep me in carrots well into the winter (and if we get a really cold spell, I could lift any remaining in the ground and store them in the shed).

We had 50/50 burgers (half ground beef, half ground bacon) with curly fries and watermelon-mint lemonade.

Hi, Albert!

And the same to you, bro.

Similar day than yesterday, here. There is a Status Yellow warning for thunderstorms in the midwest of Ireland this evening, however, which extends as far north as the county just to the south of the one I live in, so we could possibly get one as well. Shouldn't do too much harm if we do, as they usually pass over fairly quickly.

Hope everyone has a great day!

Storm warnings here too. Plus a sheep grazers warning so bring in your lambs 

 

I hope you are all enjoying your Saturday

I have just seen a game app with cats driving battle machines and all I can think of is Val and her trying to get her beloved cats in the carriers

Not sure.   It's a little cooler, but still hot and muggy. Waiting on my daughter to bring my groceries. I don't care about the groceries... just want to have someone to talk to. How are you doing?

Hi, Marty. I plan on having an easy day. I'm sore from doing renovations last evening.
