Jillus Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 I have just sat in the sun and eaten a whole punnet of strawberries with extra thick double cream ( MyDH is away for the day!) Have to hide the evidence but it felt wonderful and on the hottest day of the year what is a girl to do, just about to mix a Pimms too!

Space Chick Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 I've contemplated the merits of a chilled glass of this rather delightful Californian white Zin I have in the fridge whilst wasting... (I mean productively spending, who needs to do housework ).....time in the garden with the girls. I wish I had some Strawberries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 mmmmmmmmmmm, I love white zinfandel although why they call it 'white' is rather odd seeing as it's pink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jillus Posted May 30, 2009 Author Share Posted May 30, 2009 The Pimms was great, in fact I just happened to be passing the PC on my way to give myself a top up so here I am momentarily. I am having the most lovely lazy self indulgent day for a long time. I too have a bottleof white Zinfandel in the fridge and may well have a glass later while I watch Britains got (not much) Talent. Here's to all of us having a lazy day in the sun and apologies to those who can't for whatever reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angus Arran Chooks Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 Jllus I reckon you will be fast asleep by now, but how was I when I read this thread...? My two fav things you were quaffing whilst I stood serving in a wee hot shop all day by myself for 7 hours (finally got a pee half an hour before I finished!) Will be thinking of you tomorrow whilst I stand for another 5 hrs in same said shop... PS having a wine and lemonade as that is all there is, except beer and whisky which I dont like... oh yes, and Pringles mmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redhotchick Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 By the time I got to the shops all the strawberries had sold out I bought a tub of Summer Berries and Cream Ice Cream instead. Shared with my mum and my 2 nieces, while we watched Britains Got Talent. It's all gone. I've stocked up on White Rum so that I can make mojito. Lots of mint in my garden. Yum yum. I did try and do some weeding and I've burnt my back! Oh no! That's what you get for trying to work when it is far too hot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
