Unfortunately I am not enjoying this dry hot weather the flora and fauna are suffering I am keeping the bird baths filled and making sure visiting wildlife have water to drink throughout the day and night, I still do my mum's and brothers garden but it is so sad to see the plants suffering we are saving all the washing up water so we can try and give as much sustenance to the plants to try ensure that that don't wilt and die.  
Take care
