We have another hot day here, Beano's water bowl will be kept topped up and his walks will be short and shady.
I have four large insect bites, they are on my foot, knee, chest and face. When I walked Beano just before bedtime our mad cat lady was wandering around wearing socks, trousers, an anorak, two jumpers, gloves, a hat and a headscarf. She said she didn't want to get bitten.
I slept badly last night as I kept coughing, yet again I slept on the sofa.
I heard my Oddbox arrived at 1:30 this morning. It contained carrots, peppers, aubergine, tomatoes, strawberries, cherries, apples a melon. I shall take some of it round to my neighbour later.
I have no plans today though I may give Beano a bath to cool him down. I also need to vacuum through it, I'm hoping Steve will lift Henry off the top shelf of the cupboard for me.

Henry the Hoover definitely needs to live on a lower shelf!
I'm slowly moving everything I need down to lower shelves and where possible, ground level! X
I really sympathise. Despite spraying with insect repellant every day,I have loads of itchy bites. 😥
Have you got some antihistamine cream for the bites? It's worth having some in, just in case. Use ice packs otherwise.
I agree, Henry is too heavy to live up on a shelf!
Yes Corinne, I'm always well stocked up with antihistamine cream.
My neighbour, many years ago, used to have terrible problems with horse flies biting her. That's how I first found out about the cream, so I keep some handy too.
I react so badly to bites my doctor had to give me steroids. A few years ago I was recommended a gel from a company called Hedge Witch which was originally developed for horses but riders started using it so they started selling it in smaller quantities. I honestly don't think I could get through a summer without it now instant relief that lasts.
