Tomatoes will not set fruit if the night-time temperatures stay above 70/21°. I think because temperatures that warm tend to go along with dry weather and a lack of rain. Less stress on the plant if there are fewer fruit. 

That's my thinking too. I hope the new flowers will be conclusive. I've only left 2 little bouquets of flowers on each plant and have trim the top and side branches, no need to have so much leaves.

I've plant 3 new cherry tomatoes plants n a long planter this afternoon. They're from last year soil I've reused a bit everywhere. Worst than weeds, appearing everywhere and Damm resistant!

Apparently it's nothing more than a small amount of play on the rear right hand side brake calliper.

My garage man tells me it' nothing to worry about and not dangerous in the slightest.

 

Like I said... gremlins did it.     Hey, Marty.

It also seems my phone has died. Was fine yesterday. This morning, nothing. Thought maybe the battery died so I plugged it into the charger, nothing. Guess there's a visit to Best Buy in my morning plans.

Well ... I am currently without a functioning phone. I learned an interesting bit this morning not all Best Buys service all products. My local store is certified for Apple products. The one across the river in the next county is certified for Samsung products. My phone is a Samsung so the geeks here couldn't tell me what was wrong with the phone as they don't have the appropriate tools. Fortunately when I got this phone in December I also paid for a protection plan. 😃 I get a new replacement phone 😯 it likely will not arrive until sometime Wednesday 😟  

To cheer myself up on this damp dreary day ... on the way home I got a haircut, actually quite a few were cut, and my beard cleaned up 😳 no bearded emoji.

On the downside it seems today will be the third out of the last four days that I will need to deal with a mjor migraine 😢

The plus ... seems my back may be mostly on the mend 😶

I love when someone gets value for their protection plan. I have bought so many of those and never got to use them.

Everyone should check out @Timothy M.'s excellent review of @Hudson Bartholomew's story, Between the Tension... sounds like good summer reading.

Hi, Randy.

Cookie's spaying surgery is set for August 7th. Of course, now, I will worry it all goes okay.

I'm not sure whether it's still true, but automatics used to be much more expensive to purchase over here. But that may only have been due to the fact that they were not as common.

A lot of vehicles are not available in manual here unless you special order, and that runs into money.

People always seem surprised when I can not only handle a stick shift (go ahead and say it Bob!) But can also drive a 4 horse trailer. I dont see what the big deal is, but guys always seem surprised when a fat old lady hops down from the cab to deliver a horse.

Makes sense in a way. Although, never actually having driven an automatic, I'd say I'd have to be very careful to begin with if ever I did drive one.  

I need to be careful when switching vehicles that I dont mash my foot on the brake pedal in the auto thinking to hit the clutch.

I dont buy the extended protection any more. Never fails, issues dont come up till after whatever coverage I have expires.

Same here... I love manuals, but most have to be special order now, unless you buy the base model. 

I know some women who are better than me at backing up a big horse trailer... although I find goosenecks easier than tagalongs. One woman would back her trailer into place so fast it was scary. We called her Kamikaze-Kathy. She never did anything slow.
