Thoughts of the day every day in 2013

27 July

62,780 only 62,780 only a tiny little 62,780

I need 65,000

However hard I try I seem to be stuck at around 62,000

it is starting to depress me

[Anthea]

I am starting to think that I am the only person who plays the games on here

28 July

I have just been watching this Korean film - I love Korean films

[Anthea]

62,300 if my mouse moved any quicker the thing would catch fire with the friction

[Anthea]

This is the saddest and sweetest film I think that I have ever seen



I would not recommend anyone watching Korean horror films because they really are creepy

29 July

The weather was slightly cooler today so I will sleep better tonight

Next time I move home I am going to install full air-conditioning

Very few people have air-conditioning in England - we seldom have such hot weather - and our air is good quality apart from in centres of large cities

I did have to buy the largest fan I could find - looks very similar to an aeroplane propellers

30 July

Did I write sleep better last night - sleep better nothing - I nearly got frostbite

It is now only 17c in wet and windy England BUT in 2 days time we are told it will be back up to 32c

I do admit that the ground here needed a good soaking - we had been experiencing a large number of heath-land fires locally - even with the river and it's many cooling lakes - where I spend much of my time

To be honest I prefer the heat to the miserable cold wind and rain - I expect most people do - but 30c is enough heat for me - do not think i would be very happy if it reached 40c as it is reaching in parts of Europe

How do people in Kurdistan manage to cope and keep cool in the exceptionally high temperatures there - this is not a rhetorical question - I genuinely wish to know

31 July

The heat is coming back

I have started to do more work - my chocolate supply was getting low

One of my friends was trying to get me to marry a 25 year old friend of his - I think that 25 might be a little too young even for my liking - though the young man is supposed to be an excellent cook

1 August

I am thinking beach - sun hat - suntan lotion - fish & chips - ice-cream

[Anthea]

2 August

It was the hottest day of the year yesterday

Unfortunately followed by the hottest night

Sad but ice-cream vans do not come round at 2am

[Anthea]

Temp went down to a sticky 26c today - still nearly 30c indoors

If you have not seen my posting of the baby elephant playing in the paddling pool you really should watch it



The video is really lovely

While you watch it please give a though as to why elephants are safer in zoos - how they have been hunted and killed

WOW summer is still here - I hope that everyone is enjoying the lovely warm sunshine as much as I am

My brain does not want to work in this heat - but I will do what has to be done - fortunately though my did was not able to do very much except eat chocolate - my brain has always been active - am finding it easy to slip back into the work ethos - goodbye lazy days - by the time winter has arrived I will be in full working mode

The summer lasts 4 months.....

4 months of cold and almost non-stop rain in England - I had my central heating on well into June
