Hot as Hades

Not a snowflake's chance in hell of getting out today. Far too hot to do anything except for a brief foray to the shops this morning. And boy, was it busy down there! Lots of elderly people beating the heat I think.

It's pleasant enough inside the house - the air-conditioners are working over time but doing an excellent job. The cats will not come into the cooler rooms - as you will see from the Rower's blip.

I really didn't know what I was going to blip - I was almost forced to the kitchen drawer, but these last minute clouds saved me.

Fire!
