Well Sacha says she is watering...
and so am I.. outside veg, young fruit trees, border flowers.
I don't usually bother with the grass, but there are big cracks there
already.
Is the rest of the nation watering, or just Dorset and Devon?

Hullo Keith! Watered here in manc, and lots of it. Emptied a whole
water but at the lotty - the ground was cracking and the onions looked
very thirsty indeed. There's been days when I thought we'd get
rain .... but nothing. Got sun burns on my neck gallivanting around
yorkshire sculpture park today and on our way back my garden was
pleading for some water. It's the first time that I go around front
and back garden in mid April watering like there's no tomorrow. Now
I'm praying for lots of rain next week - I'll then be back at work
tee hee
