Early rise to take puppy out before we become toast.
Order last bits, pack later.

Morning

From sub-tropical Jockland. Damp but very muggy. 'Close' in the Vernacular.
Fish in a pond in London?!
That must be a plastic Heron.

Chores and stuff then stuff.
First: coffee

Morning

Overcast and possible showers today, activity to be decided after coffee.

Taking a week out to do some exploring.

So far I've got a train ticket to Gourock in about an hour's time and a ferry ticket later in the week from Jura to Tayvallich. Other than that, it's a blank canvas.

To my detriment, the coffee I'm taking will be instant. Premium instant though.

Overcast but warm in Manchesterland. The AC is on to keep the house cool

...
Fish in a pond in London?!
...

whitestone pond, at the summit of london, where the adjacent flagstaff flies the flag of the city

i suspect the fish were liberated from more domestic waters, some are quite big now, have to hope they survive the hot weather

in þe olde days it was used to water and cool off horses, more recently the military disturbed the tranquility of the pond

Some horses go in a river and a shed load of onlookers show up.
City folk.

Anyhoo, Beans and I had a wonderful mid summer adventure. Far more exciting than that ^.

Morning
Grey and spotting with rain here in Fife. The forecast says there more rain to come so that’s going limit todays activities.

Morning from a sun scorched midlands. WFW as usual, hoping for and early bail before it gets to hot. See PM has finally succumbed and done as Daddy Donald has bid him to do. Hopefully his replacement will be better otherwise the labour may be toast for a few years.

 

[Homers Double]

Looks more like a puddle to me.

WFH as I'd prefer to enjoy the office air con tomorrow when it'll be needed (also headed out for steak 'n' vino tomorrow in town). Quite pleasant here atm with the cave door and windows open.

Long walk with hounds before it got too warm.

Busy work day with the added bonus my car claim is now with the settlement team - so hopefully get a figure soon and then go car shopping 😎

Reasonable run in the heat later

Ended up doing a three hour walk with Bertie which was made interesting by the fact last night he managed to open the container in which my daughters dog food is kept and also eat rather a lot. So different dog food and over consumption, he’s currently up to 9 dumps so far today.🤮

That is just what happens at the Borders Common Ridings!
