Furbulous Greetings Supurr Furiends

Welcome to the BBHQ midweek news round-up!

Happy Wednesday, fluffy furiends, we hope your week has been pawsitively pawesome so far!

The weather at BBHQ over the last few days has been dry, warm and getting warmer. With yesterday hitting a scorchio 33 degrees Celsius... yeah, we're not keen on that number, but it's ok, we stayed indoors and were cool cats. There's been no rain again, which is utterly disappointing, but we're hoping for some later in the week.

And as we've had no flower photos for a few weeks, finally we've got a bit of colour back and we're delighted to share these with mew! 


Delightful Pink Dahlias

Some colour is better than no colour!

The white cabbage butterflies have been laying eggs on the new cabbage plants the P.A. bought last week, so she's decided to leave those in the main garden as sacrifice plants, so the butterflies can get their numbers up, and then buy some more cabbage plants for the veg garden later this week when the netting is up, and they will be protected from being caterpillar food shortly! MOL

Anyhoo, let's look at this week's top headlines.
