The hot weather continues and this Sky News story relates that A & E admissions are increasing with over a 100 deaths related to the heat. While this story is about Britains highest beach has a number of pics showing sun worshippers at Gaddings Dam which is 780ft ASL. I don't know about the highest beach but it looks like one of the smallest from the satellite photo on the story. Once again some of the comments on the story are gems!
Just a little late in spotting this balloon on the webcam this morning
We haven't seen as many balloons this year as in previous ones. I guess some of the well publicised crashes are putting people off
I at last managed to spend some time putting our webpage background and header pic into Summer mode yesterday click on the link to take a look.
The previous day I completed the task of turning the recently felled trees into firewood except for the particularly knotted pieces which i might have a go at this morning. Some parts of the trunk with tremendously hard knot shapes need to be cut time and time again to reduce them to firewood size
The stash on the hard topped track is now as tall as me and well covered
While down at the felling site the pile is growing. I might move it up to the track and start a new stash or just cover it up where it lies at the moment for the winter.
Finally - - I see that the hot weather has now been responsible for a number of grass fires according to this BBC story, i guess it was inevitable and i don't suppose we will have heard the last of this type of thing before the weather is due to break next Thursday. I'll leave burning my brashings at the logging site until the weather cools and we've had a bit of rain.
Enjoy the day
