BBQ

What a scorcher 29 degrees – definitely BBQ weather. It was so hot that even the Wilt had to retire to the confines of his air-conditioned car. Any excuse going out and getting yet another bottle of milk! The evening being a bit cooler, although not much, has caused the BBQ to again be dusted off and fired up. And the same weather forecast tomorrow – Salty Dog will be back in the fishpond, yet again!
Meanwhile Calleja has accessed Regulator Watch multiple times – what is wrong with the woman?
Oooopes – time to turn over the burgers and sausages.

Last time I felt 29 degrees was in London one hot summer and it was too much. Over here in NI we tend to have cooler climes. It reached the dizzy heights of 17c today and over the coming days it may get as high as 16c tomorrow and then sliding down to 13c as the week goes on. That’s not a lot. The plants have hardly any flowers and the bees must be in decline. The longest day has gone before there has been any sign of summer weather here. The last decent weather was a two week spell in late April. This is what we get for being the last piece of land this side of the Atlantic until the USA and northwest to Iceland. The grey dull clouds have been almost unremitting and the grass is truly deeply green from all the incessant rain. As I look out my window now I can see the setting sun casting a gentle orange glow on the trees at the bottom of my garden. It has come out briefly at the end of the day to taunt us. 29 c – not here anyway and rarely too.
