Heatwave

Sunday 19th June

What more could you want?
So hot at the weekend that we have to
skulk from tree to tree in the shade
and dash across the exposed sunny bits!
And of course at lunchtime
or a bit later when the sun has passed
the highest point
we dust off the barbeque
and fill it with chops and sausages!
I have to watch Tom scoffing his plateful
but - fair's fair -
he has to watch me
gnawing my lightly grilled bone
in his turn.
With a bit of luck
all Summer will be like this!
