No, I don't drink spirits any more, only beer for me! 😆 I did try making wine years ago but it did not turn out very good 🤣. The sloe gin recipe is however very easy and almost certainly delicious! !ALIVE

They are very small so you need to look closely at the lichen/moss coverings to see them. !ALIVE

Good points indeed! A world without lies, unfortunately, would not work as well as you might think. !ALIVE

Thanks @silvertop 😊. I hope you too enjoyed your Sunday. !ALIVE

This year has been incredible for the wild birds at the Ifield Mill Pond. !ALIVE

Yes, it's a very popular lake for the birds. 😁 !ALIVE

A nice collection of enthusiastic @actifit posts here! !ALIVE

A nice active life! 😁. Keep it up and enjoy! !ALIVE

Yes, on a walk into the woods yesterday I noticed that some of the more shallow rooted plants like rhododendron, under the tree canopy were wilting badly. I have nevercseen this before! !ALIVE

Do you swim every day? !ALIVE

Nicely done! !ALIVE

Nice ride! !ALIVE

I was planning a mountain bike ride this morning early, but changed my mind as the heat is a little too much! !ALIVE

I was planning an early morning cycle ride today but I couldn't face the heat! Forecast to be 30° by midday! I'll wait a few days for cooler conditions. My planned route was about 30 miles via bridalways,

Thanks for your reply. Yes, this summer has been outstanding and even beats the drought of 1976, which I remember very well! !ALIVE

Cheers all! !ALIVE

Staying hydrated is the number one priority! 😁 !ALIVE

Oh I'm looking forward to some rain, but I'll enjoy this marvellous weather for as long as it lasts! 😊. !ALIVE

Yes, yet another heatwave. This summer has been incredible, and only mid August! !ALIVE

I'm sure that hike every day is just what the doctor and vet orders! 😁 !ALIVE
