You want a hot drink to cool you down, as you've found out, cold food/drinks only warm you up.Conditions have reached that combination of high humidity and high temperature which makes my dogs listless. They dont know if they should be inside the house, outside in the shade or somewhere between the two and it is making me irritable !
And another thing , whats the point of eating ice-cream on a hot day (which l have just done) ? All it does is emphasise the fact that l am hot, the air is hot ,the chair l am sitting on is hot, etc etc. From now on l will only eat ice cream on cold days, then, relatively speaking, the chilly conditions will not seem as cold compared with the ice-cream.

Well, that didn't go to plan...
The LBS didn't have the tool I needed, and the Cathedral was closed today so I couldn't light a candle and have a few moments of quiet reflection.
At least I got a bike ride in, so my afternoon wasn't entirely wasted.

If the crank has started to move spray some WD 40 on and wind it back in and out again. If it has started to move it should come off.

I've been playing with a 1950's Kenwood Chef. The owner wanted the gears greasing and couldn't remember how it came apart. I watched James May's Reassembled programme but the didn't show the bit I wanted to see. I eventually found a written description of one which I found very useful .
The front part which they said might need a bit of jiggling needed a block of nylon and a hammer to get it moving . Once that was removed I could get at 7 screws which held part of the casing together. There were a further 10 screws to find . Eventually the casing came off revealing some very old grease which had dried hard in places. I spent the next half hour removing grease and spreading it everywhere .
I packed new grease in and reassembled it . I cleaned it and myself up and tested it . It worked !
They were well made .

Morning .
It is cloudy this morning and a little bit chilly when I put our dustbin out .
I was also wondering what the significance of the 21st July apart from that it is divisible by 3 and 7.

There was a long drive a few days ago to visit a grave, so putting 2 & 2 together it could be an anniversary.
On a more mundane note I walked up to my dad's house to pull his Blue bin round from the back of the house onto the drive so the bin men can see it, so they can empty it
