monsoon season

The hammock arrived earlier this week and it is fantastic. At one point Mr McMuffin and I were both lounging in it, so relaxed that we were totally unconcerned that Babycake might have been in the kitchen alone and juggling knives at that.

Unfortunately, the rain that failed to arrive over the last few years, leaving us with a hosepipe ban each summer, appears to have arrived in one long shower and shows no sign of letting up until September. Bring on the heatwave.
