At least it could kill off the virus


Baking hot today, and expected to get hotter as the week goes on. Welcome to our annual, all-too-brief spell of Mediterranean weather. Our filling station sold out of bottled water (because, obviously, no-one has water at home that they can put in a bottle and bring out with them) so I had to pootle over to the store and bring some crates back. The walk across the car park nearly exhausted me. I love the sunshine, but there does seem to be an optimum temperature for me, above which I start to crumble mentally and my body refuses to do the things I ask it to without threatening collapse. I rewarded myself for my efforts with a cooling Bounty ice cream. Simply the best buyable lolly ever invented, and very cooling too, so easily justifiable when I have one at 3pm on a Tuesday….
