I hate it, this year it's been relentless

It's been consistently 30° or above in my flat for days. It's utterly miserable.

Shhh! Starmer is about to announce he's solved the heat problem in the British Isles by giving away the British Isles and having China rename them. It won't cost tax payers, pensioners, the sick and the elderly, small children in chimneys, pets .. many billions in reparations.

Rachel is all in favour because we'll be dealing in another currency which she doesn't understand either.

Lammy is constructing another Lammy and wasn't told.

Ed needs another £400B to build houses on the blades of the windmills. No need for expensive cabling for locally generated free electricity and the breeze will be fantastic in the houses as the residents twirl around in the breeze.

I learned that I was fundamentally not wired for hot weather when I lived in Australia for a while. It was then that I realised I had clearly been a penguin in a former life (which explained the walk).

Not yet, but we're working on it.

Meanwhile we are having a positively chilly summer in San Diego.
