Too hot to blog

Like many, I have been sweating, boiling and wilting in the energy-sapping heat of the past few days. The forecourt has been awash with burnt shoulders and sweaty faces, while the conversation near the tills has mostly been about how it’s “too damn hot to deal with” (mostly from the same people whom three weeks ago were saying “When’s Summer getting here then?”)
I have found lots of excuses to be locked away in my air-conditioned office, but one has to venture out occasionally for fear of being forgotten about, and when I do I find myself sweating like a fat man on a treadmill. Call me a typical Britishman, but I am finding it a little too much to bear. I enjoy cycling, surfing and sitting still outside. I can’t do any of those things at the moment because I’d probably die if I did!
Anyway - I digress - I haven’t been completely switched off over the weekend. I did just manage to raise enough energy to lift my hand and put pen to paper. Here’s a quick blast of INITIALOETRY:

Stuck under new sunshades.
How I need energy.
