It's far too hot to use the bus
Why not just post a film for us?

Really awful about the poor horses!  So hard to keep cool, I'm going to sit outside shortly, before the sun comes up properly.  Also got an exercise class in the pool later, that will be heaven!

Oh heavens - No.     :shock:

I hadn't thought of that,  and Tabby is a very pious lady too.

The Chat Room / This awful heat

I am just watching on the news, and it says there were thousands  of lightning strikes today,  one of which set a house on fire!

Hundreds of schools have closed,  trains are struggling, they have advised to check your train before you  travel.    In some places the train lines are warping.
They also mentioned about the tarmac on roads could start melting.
Also,  6 fire engines attended a blaze on an industrial estate in Kettering today.

I felt so angry today when I saw some horses stuck in a small fenced off bit of field,  with no shelter whatsoever,  not so much as a tree to stand under,  very little grass,  they just had to stand there and cook with the blazing sun on their backs for hours.

We have a rare RED ALERT  for this area  for tomorrow,  with the possibility of it reaching towards 40°.
Pretty scary that . .

Just ask the ladies down the street
Just talk to any that you meet 
So what about some tickets for us
We can get there easily on the bus
But don't forget to wash your feet.   :grin:

Thanks Alex.
I don't like being alone in the house without them.
I want them home,  as much as they want to come home.

I just hope they can do Lif with a local, instead of a general anaesthetic,  because she is 14 now.

klondike, you should stop these nightly frolics
Best stay in and drink some Horlicks
Sorry but you're just not right
I love the prancing every night
Just wash that mouth out with carbolic

Just ask the ladies down the street
Just talk to any that you meet
