All the best Jo - hope you have a lovely weekend!

Same to everyone else around here who's been having tough times.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

Went whale watching today in San Francisco Bay and just beyond the Golden Gate Bridge into the Pacific - saw two separate groups of Humpback whales (one of 4 and one of 2) repeatedly blow and breach for about two hours - amazing, enjoyable, and very impressive.

Pick up the car tomorrow, and off to Monterey/Carmel.

As an aside, we're stopping at the Marines' Memorial Club in SF, and they have a Happy Hour 4-6pm every day, where (if you're a resident) the draft beers, house wines, and a wide range of cocktails, are free - God Bless America!

Sounds wonderful Hugh!

Ive just been out in the greenhouse, it's only 8.15am but already the temperature is 36 degrees C, so yet another scorcher lucky us.

Partly a moan, because it means the best manager leaving the office and potentially the company, but my manager who I've had run ins with is 12 weeks pregnant.

Well I went for a walk in the countryside and ended up where there there were some nice pools. So hot I just had to skinny dip. Just that mud.
