    Ended up pulling out a book because sleep is for the people with air cons.

    Turns out Touched by an Angel (ten year old Doctor Who novel) still holds up, and actually is better than I remembered. Who knew?

      Some of those scifi series like Dr Who books are written by really good and now famous authors, using fake names. It’s reliable income in a trade that’s notorious for variability.

    You might remember I joked yesterday about having to hide the AC remote from the wife? Yeah she went to bed with a heat pack last night.

      Haha my wife was under a blanket on the couch when watching TV last night too. I wish I had their resilience to the heat!!!

    Wind is picking up. And its bin day here, so expecting a lot of incidental rubbish on the street later today. Of all days.

    Everybody has had their brains cooked. An asleep boyo informed me he need to go walk the crayfish.

      Channelling the Mock Turtle’s song in Alice in Wonderland. Given that lobsters and crayfish are pretty much the same.

      “Will you walk a little faster?” said a whiting to a snail. "There’s a porpoise close behind us, and he’s treading on my tail. See how eagerly the lobsters and the turtles all advance! They are waiting on the shingle — will you come and join the dance? Will you, won’t you, will you, won’t you, will you join the dance?

      “You can really have no notion how delightful it will be, When they take us up and throw us, with the lobsters, out to sea!” But the snail replied “Too far, too far!” and gave a look askance— Said he thanked the whiting kindly, but he would not join the dance. Would not, could not, would not, could not, would not join the dance.

      “What matters it how far we go?” his scaly friend replied. "There is another shore, you know, upon the other side. The further off from England the nearer is to France— Then turn not pale, beloved snail, but come and join the dance? Will you, won’t you, will you, won’t you, won’t you join the dance?

      He’s a great story teller, it was a shame he went sub-only, but he’s got to make a living like the rest of us. I can only find his new pod ‘Medical Mysteries’ but not his true crime series.

    I like those Chris’ Dips that come in the little terracotta pots. However, don’t get them delivered if you order groceries online. I think they spend a bit too much time in the back of the truck out of the fridge. They can be one of the few reasons I leave the house to buy groceries.
