On This Day…
I’m annoyed on a few fronts this morning. Firstly we seem to have a new measure of how hot it is having crept in…a Heatwave Alert Level. What on earth is that? As far as I am aware the temperature has not risen above 30 degrees this year and we regularly take that when the nations ups and goes to Spain and the like. Suddenly we need to be told to stay out of direct sun at midday and the like. What was that song??? Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday to sun. It’s more of the nanny state coming in to protect us. Like they are any people to lecture us? I’m mad
The second thing that has riled me, for no other reason than it shows incompetence, is the U-Turn by Beanies henchman Mandleson. In December when the economy was in a worse position and all other indicators worse or at least no different he was pushing ahead with the part-privatisation of Royal Mail. He has received vitriolic reviews on it, including from his own side. Suddenly, the economic conditions are not right to pursue it. Me think this Government makes it up as they go along!
Prepared for my day off and trip to Wimbledon today by having a small tap about match with Jo on our court yesterday. It was really great fun and a good wind down for the end of the day. It was amazing how we started lobbing balls to each other and it got more and more competitive. We are ones. I’m quite looking forward to my trip today as I’ve never been before. I’m not that fond of tennis but it’s ladies semi-final day so should be worth watching.
Got the plumbing sorted in the en-suite and now just need to get some plywood over the floorboards to allow the tiles to stay stuck and we should be away with that project. it’s about time we started that and got the bedroom finished.
On this day in history and last year…

I desperately need to know the Heatwave Alert Level otherwise I won’t be able to function!

I have the day off, I’m off to Wimbledon and it’s a scorcher.
