Yup. It's hot! I'm glad we're down from the 100s. We had a 115 day! that's crazy.
12:22 am
cybernan

it is a disaster for the farmers and orchardists. Crops are drying up, first cherry crop is lost, some of the apple varieties are sun burned and the water levels in the creeks and lake are at an all time low.
12:22 am

4:32 am

yes matty, it's rh5,16
4:34 am
mattygroves

Thank you! And good morning
4:34 am
FrenchToast

sometime vowel is the middle letter, if that helps
4:35 am
mattygroves

Found it, thanks!
4:35 am
FrenchToast

yay! How is little Miss Tilly?
4:35 am
mattygroves

Adorable. Just starting to tentatively walk!
4:36 am
mattygroves

She'll be 15 months in just over a week
4:36 am
FrenchToast

oh wow
4:36 am
FrenchToast

I had an Aunt Tilly!
4:36 am
mattygroves

Yeah, time totally flies.
4:37 am
mattygroves

It's funny how names come and go in and out of fashion! She's a Matilda, technically (called Matilda, Tilda, Tilly and various variations)
4:38 am
FrenchToast

yes, my Aunt was a Matilda too. Growing up, I always thought "Tilly" was the cutest name.
4:38 am
mattygroves

I like it - but I'm biased
4:38 am
FrenchToast

of course!
4:39 am
mattygroves

It's funny - I wasn't impressed with the name when Sarah told me when she was born and yet it grew on me VERY quickly!
4:39 am
FrenchToast

I know another Matilda right now, and we call her "Matty."
4:40 am
mattygroves

Hah! My 'real' name is, of course, not Matty. It's Kate ;)
4:40 am
FrenchToast

Oh I wondered! The Matty I know is at my workplace.
4:41 am
FrenchToast

My real name is Laurie :)
4:41 am
FrenchToast

NOt Frenchy, haha
4:41 am
mattygroves

Matty Groves is a folk song - it's about adultery and murder so....
4:41 am
mattygroves

Matty is in the grid - just as well it's not a word ;)
4:42 am
FrenchToast

Oh I didn't know about the song. Tell me, do you know the village called Gerrard's Cross, in Bucks County? I grew up there.
4:42 am
mattygroves

I do (I've not been but I know where it is). I did not realise you grew up in the UK!
4:43 am
FrenchToast

Yes my father was in the USNavy. We lived in England and traveled all over Europe, for about 4 years in the 1960s. It was wonderful! I went to school at RAF High Wycombe.
4:45 am
mattygroves

I do know High Wycombe. My daughter went to Birmingham University so when we'd drive up the M40, High Wycombe was sort of halfway there (ish) - where the Red Kites were released (they've spread - we have quite a lot of them here much further south near Windsor)
4:47 am
FrenchToast

I stay in touch with one of my friends from High Wycombe, I went to visit her in Florida last year. We were in 6th grade together. So many fun memories! We went to Camp Mohawk, have you heard of it.
4:48 am
mattygroves

No. I suspect there are tons of summer camps called that in the US though!
4:48 am
mattygroves

I married and Englishman (since divorced and traded up to a better model...or at least a different model of Englishman) so my daughter went to British schools, let a British life etc etc etc
4:49 am
mattygroves

She has a British (slightly tinged with Australian now) accent
4:50 am
FrenchToast

No, I meant we went to Camp Mohawk when we were in England. I'm not sure where it is exactly, but most US military kids were sent there in the summers.
4:52 am
mattygroves

yeah, I don't know much about the military stuff - I never hung with ex-pats as I married the Englishman so have led a fairly English life. Though I still don't really care about the results of tonight's football (soccer)!
4:54 am
FrenchToast

Is that World Cup?
4:56 am
mattygroves

Euros 2020 (postponed from last year)
4:56 am
FrenchToast

Oh OK! Glad they are playing again!
4:56 am
mattygroves

England are in the final - the first final of a major international tournament since 1966
4:57 am
FrenchToast

exciting!
4:57 am
FrenchToast

it's about time haha!
5:02 am
mattygroves

I predict Italy will win 3-1!
5:06 am
frogface

traitor Matty.
5:06 am
frogface

I think 2-1 to england.
5:07 am
mattygroves

I don't WANT Italy to win, you understand, I just predict they will - England are excellent at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory ;)
5:07 am
frogface

They have played exceptionally well this tournament, looking forward to the game tonight.
5:07 am
mattygroves

Fingers crossed!
5:08 am
mattygroves

There will be a few sore heads tomorrow, I reckon, whatever happens
5:09 am
frogface

hopefully through celebrating and not drowning sorrows
5:09 am
mattygroves

Indeed!
5:09 am
mattygroves

Cute icon, frog!
5:11 am
frogface

Thank you, my home town.
5:11 am
frogface

well represents that anyway, the beatles.
5:12 am
mattygroves

Yep! Clever!
5:12 am
mattygroves

Now I have Ferry Cross the Mersey running through my head
5:13 am
frogface

that'll stick then.

My country of birth and my heritage would say that soccer (football) should be entertaining to me, but sadly I could never get into it. I tried, I really did. I forget the teams, but I once sat down and watched the first place team play the team that was in last place. The ball went back and forth for ninety minutes, and at the end of it all the score was tied 1-1. The most entertaining thing to me about European soccer is the rabid fans in the stand who destroy each other and everything around them during that 90 minutes.

The most bring thing to me would be British dart competitions--they always go something like this: "20....20!!!, and while we wait for the final throw, I can tell you that Reginald Smythe hails from Puddleby-on-the-Wye, and collects antique bar taps and petrified sheep droppings..."
