I loved both the gardening and flat wine, of course I loved the goat story. I miss being here and seeing your work more often. 
George said hello.

Hah!, no it's just a name. It should have been okay. People have different palates, even judges... I like French, Italian and some Australian wines.

Re: RPresta
Now you tell me RP , Does it mean they still tread the grapes with bare feet? Actually it reads on the label. Gold Medal Ultimate Challenge 2014.I expect I bought it as I like some countries better than others.

Re: I cannot think of it being so terribly steamy in the UK - I think of it
Pat it was so humid we are in the centre only see seagulls on the waste pit.
I got fed up with the sweet peas so many flowers I cut the tops off hoping they will shoot again. That's it I am not going to all that bother next year..

Re: RPresta
Goodness RP. Water is precious here, one would not think so with all the rivers, not enough money or sometimes the room to build large containment areas. I do sprinkle some parts but very often there is a ban even on hoses. That is a nightmare. Once we had a tall water tower and that was sufficient for the town. I expect it has grown at least 50 times larger.

Re: Kabu
I have a big Australian type hat Kabu. Plenty of suncream and from 5 a.m to 9a.m. It is OK. I have always been use to being outside, but I definitely will plan it different next year. Also i have picked the gooseberries which Archie always claims, I'll tell him the birds had them. Call this a break it makes me sweat.

Glad it cooled off. Hard to think if it being so hot there. Why don't you get an automated sprinkler system? Or a hose with holes that irrigates? Sounds like a pleasant tale of a boy with his dad! True?

I cannot think of it being so terribly steamy in the UK - I think of it
as coastal with sea breezes - similar to the climate range in Seattle. This week I have been so homesick for the Pacific Northwest - I cannot remember it ever getting up to 90 degrees there for days at a time and staying hot all night, too. First day I ever set foot in this neck of the woods, I thought I'd come into the tropics, a steamy jungle. I hope your sweet peas don't frustrate you too much.
