LITTLE BADGES - BADGE 'O' THE MONTH AUGUST

Hi

The virtual kettle's on..... So while I let it boil I just have this to say

Wow! What happened to July. One day it stood there looking me square in the eyes and then, pzzaz..... It's gone.

Which gave us the added headache of working out over a couple of bottles of wine and an Ardbeg whiskey, what should be the Badge 'o' the month this month.

In the end due to watching the news, while deciding, we had to go for the 'little dark raincloud'.

Last months, Ice cream badge was a mere pipe dream as it became clear that we had been lied to again by the weather forecasters.

But I should have realised that this was just a conspiracy. We all know that hot weather makes us reach for our wallets and purses and buy stuff that we don't want and will use once in a blue moon..... for example, barbecues! In England, I ask you. Where on earth do we think we all live, Australia.

When I was growing up, we had a Ball B Que Bar B Que, and many a Sunday would see my dad huddled in the garage cooking burgers, in a plume of smoke, while it hissed it down outside!
Then we would be forced to stand outside in the great outdoors to enjoy the delights of outdoor eating. Where do all those insects suddenly come from, when there is a whiff of Tomato relish in the air.

So the Government obviously had a hand in the met offices decision to promise yet again such a lovely summer. I know we did have some hot days, as I was insulating the roof on the hottest day of the year. Who needs saunas when you have a loft.

So here is a big cheer for the Little dark raincloud badge, may it have the reverse effect just like the ice cream badge!

Well, I can hear the kettle has just finished boiling so

Milk and sugar?
