A deep summer evening

I haven't been out this week, owing to work-horribleness. Today it was probably too hot to do much anyway; it was windy this afternoon, too.

However, I've just been watering the herbs and tomatoes and strawberries (ate both the ripe ones) in a most beautiful evening. The wind has dropped, there are a few clouds, and it's gently warm. The sky is layered deep pink and hundreds of blues. The noise level in the garden is amazing: there appears to be a crickets' concert tonight.

The mad panic for a deadline tomorrow is now a lessened panic for a deadline on Tuesday. And I have screenshots of the UI! Wow, so that's what it does...

I shall return to writing "To do this, click Button A" (that's the easy part, or at least it is when you can see the product - the hard part is explaining why you should bother^W^W^W^Wwhat it's for). But first, a Heroic scrambled egg. As m'neighbour said when she brought them over in a bag because they wouldn't fit in an eggbox, "This week the chickens think they're ostriches".
