Last day of June

Today is the last day of June. The weather was dry today but overcast. It looks like the summer is passing us by again. I do feel sorry for the school children on holidays at the moment. It would be nice if we got some sunshine. We had a quiet day today no visitors. I went for a long walk today, it's good to get out when it's dry. Robert was playing golf.

Today is the 21/06/08. However when i look out the window you would think it was the middle of winter. The sky is grey and the rain is pouring down . I wish I was back in lanzarote . Today lilyana is being christened. Her name will be Lilyana Roberta Peglar. I will post some pictures when I get them. I still have to find out how to put them on to my computer, thats where Eugene comes in. I thought I might go for a walk But that has been put on hold for now.If this weather keeps up for long our summer will be gone just like all the other summers of late.Today is the longest day of the year.
