    Good grief it's stuffy today!! I had a nice cool shower this morning and I am still wet. Just breathing is making me drip. Someone ( Ziggy ) get out there and do a dance so we get a nice thunderstorm to cool things down a bit!!!

        Hello all you Hotties :heehee:

        We've had a good old down pour in the land of Milk and Beans but it's getting hotter again. I'm at melting point and looking towards my vinyl flooring in the kitchen to make summer version of snow angels!

        Been away for a while but hey it's great to be back         :thumbsup:
