1. I walk to the allotment in the midday sun then hang out done more washing on the baking patio. Afterwards I’m reminded once again how much I love our cool house.
2. I destroy our joint equal best score at our silly addiction.
3. I hear meowing while I’m on the phone to my mum in the garden and poke my head over the fence thinking I’ll see the new little kitten at the neighbour’s cat flap. Instead I see Strange, locked in their house. A text message later and she’s released: she dashes into the garden then back up to our office with a tale to tell.
4. With the heat finally on the wane, I go to the allotment again after dinner. I fill my tubs with berries and currants to turn into jams and jellies – if John doesn’t eat them all first.
