Well it arrived we managed about 6 hits each before Mrs SW managed to hit the stupid person onto the roof (OK only a flat roof).
Retrieved then it was rain stopped play. :roll:

Have had a nightmare day today with hayfever, been going on for about 2 weeks now. Never had it in my life, then it started when I was in my 60's. Get it in my eyes which itch like mad, then if I rub them it feels like there are sharp stones in there. Taking drops, which smart (the smarting is at least a change from the itching!) The drops alleviate the situation for an hour or so, then it starts again. Had a lot of rain today so am hoping its dampened the pollen down which should make things a bit easier.

Strange that John, I used to get it bad up to I was 50ish and touch wood seem to have been immune to it since, it certainly drives you mad though.

i'm a bit like John. never had it until about 2 years ago now my nose strems and can't stop sneezing. One antihistamine tablet a day really helps it though.

Just back from a walk around the estate, something I’ve not done for awhile. It was nice that every person I passed whether walking, running or cycling gave me a hearty “ good morning “ it’s such a lovely morning here it’s hard to believe that’s there’s anything going on in the world. I hope all my fellow talkers are keeping well & stay safe.

You are spot on with the way people are giving their good mornings, its a polite world out there.

Just on way out for our daily morning walk, have a handful of routes we can do from home so varying it a little, still feels like groundhog day though. Looks like it'll be dry so bit of gardening pencilled in this afternoon.

Stay safe everyone :thumbup:
