Got it. I can go out now.

I got the wordle but got blown out by the Dordle.

From my Facebook page this morning, I had to think about it for a moment.


An older couple had been dating for a while and eventually the old guy decides to ask the woman to marry him.
Fortunately she said yes.
Feeling immensely relieved he asks her a question.
He says to her,
“I know that we haven't really discussed this side of things before but may I ask you..."
"What do you think about sex?”
Looking him in the eye she replied,
"Infrequently”
Pausing for a moment he then politely inquired,
“Is that one word or two?”

Hello. 26⁰ at 5.40 in the backyard probably partly due to radiated heat from the walls. Cool downstairs but a touch warm up. Quite a breeze in the tree tops but very little at ground level. Odd that. @classic33 any info on that? Should be right up your street.

Small person will be collected 30 minutes earlier than usual to make sure granddad is home and logged on for 9.00am! 🤣

Pleased she's here today as Mrs P will take her swimming and the afternoon will be cool indoors for her.

Somewhat amused by today's Wordle word. Childish. I know.

The only thing I can think of causing that, would be ground shape. If it's happening all the time, ground type if only in warmer weather.

For the first think of it as walking in a sunken lane, with the wind blowing over the top. On a larger scale it can be something half a mile away causing it.

Ground type can cause heat to be radiated at different rates, disrupting airflow. Think thermal curtain, the sort you see at supermarket entrances, only this will be warmer air rising with a similar effect.

Check on a map for the first, on a geological map for the second if no man made features could be to blame.

It def isn't as hot here as it was yesterday thank God. It's overcast so that is keeping the temp.l down a bit and there is a breeze as well.

 

[Dirk]

We has a thunder storm and rain.

Back home.....all the bitty things done.
It is CHILL TIME

Little 17 mile bimble before it gets any hotter. Off to freshen up/cool down and that will be me chilling out for the rest of the day no doubt sitting watching the cycling with the fan blasting on me.

If you don't like the heat stay out of my kitchen it's bloody hot in there with the oven on

Running low on mince pies and made three more chicken and stuffing pies.

Just back from our walk, seven souls in total. It was shady through the woods but we cut the walk short anyway. Ended up in the pub a tad earlier than usual, and instead of coffee I treated myself to a pint of Square Logic. 🍺

With our friend visiting this morning I was able to nip out for a couple of hours, I nipped out in the car and visited Palmers Garden Centre in Ullesthorpe, first time in there for a while, had a batch and a coffee and found they had changed the recipe, a crusty roll and posh sausages, a noticeable improvement from their old ones. Driving back the temperature display was showing 90 degrees, its warmer than that now.
