Not blocked but no time

I haven't written anything for what seems like ages. My excuse is that I do not function in hot weather and boy has it been hot.
I did read a poem at the Balade Poesie in the new communal garden.
The poem was called La Grenouille- the frog. I thought that this was amusing since English people refer to french people as frogs and the French call English people ros-bif (roast beef).
 The word is known to be difficult to pronounce and as it was a poem there were lots of words which rhymed with it and were equally difficult to pronounce. So I dressed in green and hoped that it gave people a laugh.
