Evening.
I went round my friend's this morning to do some grinding and then welding on an exhaust pipe of his. When I got back home I decided to cycle down to my brother's. It was getting a bit warm by then. I got back home just before mid day. The temperature gauge in our car now reads 34 C.
Oh! We had 1mm of rain yesterday.

It's been a hot and sunny day here chez Casa Reynard, after a bit of overnight rain.
Did not sleep well - too hot and too tired. Morning was spent making pesto - I bought a load of basil on YS in Waitrose the other night, and the pot in my hanging baskets was starting to go over after flowering. Used the last of a lump of parmesan and some of last year's foraged walnuts. Also watered all the planters.
Toast and a
for luncheon, then did some writing while watching the Bidding Room. After, I made that batch of damson jam. Now sat down with a watching The Hundred.
The cat has been fed (Gourmet with ocean fish) and soon it will be time to feed me.

Lovely supper of spaghetti with homemade pesto & sun-dried tomatoes, plus a tomato salad on the side. There is a slice of Zwetschenkuchen with my name on it for later.

Does that include 3d printers?
Scared of the competition?
They 3D print their coffee? That explains everything!

Well, that was a very enjoyable game of cricket.

Another means of reporting the weather is black car meteorology. The dust on black cars has become dappled by a light sprinkling of water. From which I assume that London had the lightest of showers some time when I was away.
Living room temperature has dropped to 30.2C.
Oh, @Reynard, I just looked up your cake recipe because I've had it in the past but I discovered it's actually Zwetschgenkuchen. I admit I'd never heard that there was a /g/ in it.

This evening's hot chocolate has just been drunk.
The trip to Tesco for squash (and a loaf of bread to go in the freezer) was successful but took rather longer than expected. It's my sister's birthday on Sunday and she prefers Next vouchers - there's a Next store in Martlesham and a Tesco superstore just across the road from there so instead of a short ride into Felixstowe and back, I ended up being out for just over a couple of hours in the heat & humidity.
Needless to say the majority of the afternoon was spent slumped in the deck chair in the shade of the shed and with a lovely cooling breeze, cold drinks, the radio and some reading material.

Whoops, my bad about the spelling.
Am using the recipe from "Das Bayerisches Kochbuch" published in 1931...
