I was thinking of putting one on the gable of the shed. I wonder if they would bother the carpenter bees, though. I kind of like those fellows.

I don't think they will. They go after the dusk critters like mosquitoes, gnats and other biters

About 2 months ago a new supermarket opened nearby. I love it. They have a lot of fresh fruit and vegetables (in other supermarket you always need to look very good and if it's bagged you have to keep an eye on the sell-by dates) and they have reasonable prices.

The last couple of weeks you get a voucher with a code on it if you buy groceries for more than €5. Each day several names are chosen and you can win various items with as grand price a shopper full of groceries. I got one yesterday and decided to fill in the code on their Facebook page. And today it was announced I was one of today's winners.

I won a four pack of Jillz sparkling cider! I don't even drink alcohol often, maybe a vodka and orange juice one New Year's Eve if I don't forget it. LOL. I'll give it a try, otherwise I give it to my sister, I know she likes Jillz.

WARNING: The following post contains very intimate information that may be unsuitable for some 'delicate' members ... read at your own peril!

In the summer, my PJs consist of a T-shirt and a pair of Fila athletic shorts -- you know, the shorts made from silky smooth synthetic material with an extremely baggy fit with huge legs that reach down to your knees ....
On weekends, I tend to schlepp around the house in this ensemble

I also have a cat, Stella, who loves to drink from dripping faucets. We leave the cold tap dripping in the bathroom for her ... and the top of her head is usually wet ....

So, this morning, after breakfast, I settled down to catch up on posts here, and forgot all about cats ...

Stella, feeling somewhat neglected, and wanting to be on my lap, was trying to quietly get my attention. When she was unsuccessful, she jammed a cold, wet cat head inside my left shorts leg ...

Needless to say ... that got my attention ... words fail to describe the sensation of the sudden cold, wet shock ...

I am so glad I wasn't drinking anything before I read this post.

Good news!

We're sat outside round the fire pit. The boys have been breaking up an old wooden table (weapons of choice; a saw and a hammer) and we're burning the pieces whilst roasting marshmallows. Very enjoyable!

About to set off to my favourite cinema to see Jurassic World with my sister. Because on the Sunday of the month the stores are open in that town we're going a bit earlier so we can have lunch and a look around before the film starts.

I've just made a birthday card for one of our suppliers who's coming on his bi-monthly visit tomorrow and whose birthday is on Thursday. Making cards for men is very hard! It's a simple card with grey and dark teal as main colours. I'm considering adding some enamel dots.

I'm just back from a water related vacation - extended family units gathered around a lake, for swimming, kayaking, and table games and chatting in the evenings after the littles went to bed. Great fun! Shame I had to come back and go to work again.

Listening to the Tour de France festivities on the nearby square, which are also held tomorrow and Saturday night from 9pm until 1am. However, I'm also listening to the approaching thunderstorm. Hopefully it'll cool down more afterwards.

Preparing to go see what's happening around the city with all the Tour festivities. There's an alternative to the Tour Caravan with over a 1000 cyclists participating and cycle through the city.
