34 C in the shade here.

Sunny, still and stinking hot here chez Casa Reynard.

Spent the morning clearing up the de-quarantined shopping and also put a gallon of go-juice in the car (I'm sure the mower will be happy to share) as I can't be arsed to go for fuel.

About to have a spot of lunch.

I was out on my bike this morning, 53 miles ridden, and very enjoyable it was.

I've been to Poundland! And Tesco. And Decathlon - the g-kids have been shredding inner tubes by riding over blackberry thorns and then continuing to ride with flat tyres. It is not the weather for any kind of effort so I rode in true elderly fashion.

In other news, I had a bath this morning. My overlong toenails needed a good soak before I could cut them.

I think it may about time you all bought a/c units. That is about the temps we used to have in late August here. That has changed. We get heat in late June to late July here, in that range, August is cooler than it used to be, around 30 or less most of the time. In my humble opinion, about time we ditched most of the cars and went to electric vehicles fed by wind and solar power. We might contain and extract methane from cow manure as well.

I don't think we've even begun to think of external blinds yet. Better to do that than add to the ambient heat with A/C.
