From what I have read it is true Ken but not for people like me who rarely sweat…I could wear a shirt for a week and still come up smelling of roses. :)
I believe you but 50p says that it will however be smeared with egg, Weet-a-bix, Marmite, Tomato Sauce, Salad Cream plus many other items collected that past week ;)
:lol:

You’re talking dribble again Mob ;) :wave:

That’s sods law Mob…. you’ve been so carful this past couple of years… hope you’re not experiencing really bad symptoms and wish you a short recovery.

Take care. :wave:

P.s Our daughter is off work with covid but has very mild symptoms, thankfully.
One man's mild is another man's bitter ....Mobietta suggested I took some Paracetamol but ... ;)

Mostly cold / flu like symptoms but Saturday was a complete mystery, well I think it was Saturday. A lot of sleeping and nose blowing for the most part. God knows it could have been much worse :wave:

I’ve just experienced one of those ephemeral moments having just walked round the garden after a shower of rain. A shower of rain on a hot summer’s day has a distinct smell all of its own….just refreshingly lovely.

The cloud is most welcome today rather than the piercing sun. Still 30deg out and 26 indoors though.

The only thing wrong with warm cloudy days is that it is a good time to jetwash ... things like patios, drives and unfortunately the sewer.

Indeed, it's something you experience without ever knowing how it happens.

It's much cooler up here and living near the sea we always have a bit of a sea breeze which helps to keep the temperature down.

We have high temperatures but being up a hill we do generally have a cooling breeze. Because of our Covid we are presently finding that we are more comfortable indoors ... :relaxed:
