It's been lovely here in Northampton for the last few days. Out with the dog
every day in just a T-shirt and jeans, and starting to get a semi-decent sun
tan (me that is). No need for a rant at the moment, though I did notice this
evening that the water butt is starting to get a bit on the low side. Much
longer with no rain, and it'll be a toss up whether to keep watering the
pots, pay through the nose for metered water, or poach from next door's
outside tap.
