It's still June and it hasn't rained round my way for nearly a month. Everything's parched and I'm having to water my fvcking allotment every single day at the moment to stop everything dying.
Fvck off, sun. Just fvck off.

Same here (well not the allotment bit). We’ve had warnings for forest fires in place for the last month. They’ve even done a nationwide ban on disposable barbecues :hehe:Quote:

The front of ours has been turned over to 'landscape' and 'features' (as described by the Estate Agents) by the previous owners. No lawn at all.Quote:

I was good yesterday - actually left the pub after the Japan Senegal game. Of course the 12 or so hours of drinking on Saturday might have had something to do with that. Thank **** the rugby internationals are overQuote:

I think I watched some of Scotland Argentina as well at some pointQuote:
