Took the pups out at 6am this morning well before it hit 35 deg here by the afternoon.

Played golf today,
It was a match and I was genuinely concerned that the 83 old in the visiting team wasnāt going to get round.
A moment of unimaginable gay abandon, i feel liberated.

We took Ruby on a couple of miles walk this morning, with a break in the middle at a local cafe for brekkie.
Was probably only 11.30 when we got back to our holiday place and she was properly heat stressed, despite FoL#1 giving her a really severe haircut before we came away to try and prevent that very thing. Had to hose her down for ages to get her right. Was really frightening.
So of course, as soon as weāre back, FoL#2 trots down to the beach just as the heat really starts to buildā¦

Working in That London has become less of a trial. The warm weather always raises my spirits.

Itās ass hot.
Weāre watching Predator 2 to stay on-message.
Also, it appears that all our neighbours are using shitty chemical disposable barbecues tonight.

Ditto. I get quite bad SAD and for the last few years, have found myself feeling worse due to the long grey cloudy days weāve had throughout July and August. Itās been warm but hardly any sunshine for extended periods of time. And then I start feeling ārobbedā of a summer and get frustrated.
So while Iām concerned about environmental changes, selfishly, this summer has been brilliant for me, have loved every hot sunny day, feeling like Iām abroad but without having to leave.

Not for me. We went up to Ambleside for the last week of our caravan and planned lots of fells, including Bandits first mountain.
No way. Just early walk then sit around reading then pub then eat / more drinks then a late walk.
Jan spent a lot of walk time in the local river and tarn.

Lightening here last night, rain. Back to normal up here. No drought, not expecting any flooding.
