Heatwave

Had a super afternoon with Layla and Bella in their garden, it was a scorcher, so we got the big paddling pool out and started to fill it, guess what it started to rain. Only rained for a minute or two then the sun came out again. Layla had very kindly invited Tawfik, Samia and Fion for dinner at 1830h so most of the afternoon she was busy cooking.
Bella did her writing and played in the garden, then when Layla went to Asda, Bella and Graham went with her, I stayed behind to take Ruaridh for a walk-no joy he was having none of it. So chatted to the neighbours and read some of the Guardian, then the family came back and Bella's wee chum Eve arrived and they went into the pool and had a great time.
Joe came home from work, and the visitors arrived to lots of lovely Indian food what a feast, as it was still warm we sat outside on the new deck and had a lovely meal and chat. Thanks to the family for a super day and meal, especially the cook!
Bella was so tired she went to bed herself wee soul. We left and came home. To bed. Goodnight.
