HEATWAVE REPORT
Until today, the heatwave was pretty crap here in Birmingham. The weather succeeded in being very wet, dull and muggy, which is all the bad stuff about a heatwave with none of the good. It is very odd to drive to work in fog and then have to run to the office from the car being pelted with rain harder than pebbles and hotter than my morning shower.
Today was an improvement. It was actually sunny and it was heartening to see sunrays bounce off those cars - my office overlooks a carpark, which is alright, but I'd prefer a lake or the ocean maybe. I didn't actually get to experience the sun until I got home at 6pm. It's a very sad thing only to get to look at sunlight and not actually be in it.
I note that the year Wimbledon gets a rain-proof roof-thingy, it turns out to be hot and sunny. Ha! Weather has sense of humour.

That's it then - Wimbledon having that roof is the cause, as in -
when we leave home with a coat, an umbrella and no sunglasses, it is sure to be dry and sunny.
The planet clearly co-operating with our muddled lives.

Good opportunity to heat yon water bottles for the next cold spell...
That is all fairy muff.
