The answer to the question about how everyone would cope with more normal August temperatures came immediately. A great deal of whingeing!
TC kept going out and coming in and going out again, very untogether with his world.
Butch had a lie-in, but then whinged all afternoon.
Sundance had an early start but was then very taken aback that it didn't protect him from the warm all day and had a mega-whinge.
Peter Sellers helped put the washing out, sitting in the shade of the apple tree and then skipped about complaining she was hot. Eventually she hid under a rose bush and refused to budge. Until Matthew came to say hello at which point she asserted herself roundly, not realising that Mad Millie was behind him. Mad Millie looked a bit bemused and ambled past, also choosing not to bother with the normal walk with Davison and JLo (and fluffy friend) a couple of minutes later. Marcus also 'passed' on the walk. Butch made a move to do some assertiveness training with Peter, but then decided she was in the wrong mood and went off looking for anything to cover the embarrassment of changing his mind.
Hamish has been letting the slugs off lightly and they have become heavyweight thugs. Let's hope he isn't planning on opening a slug farm and selling them on, they are now almost all of them over 10cm long and while most plants have evidence of feasting, some have disappeared altogether.
