owl Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 When you out your hand in the fishtank and think the heater stopped working because water is cold. Check thermometer, it's the correct 24C and it is everywhere else that is too hot. Not so bad tomorrow. Got a lot of laundry done and dried in no time, done little else. We are both clobbered by the heat. Sleeping downstairs may be only option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzeanna Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 It's 26 upstairs here...fan on I think. Eve, that was right at the start of the lockdown, when no one was supposed to be going anywhere apart from a short walk for exercise. Mosques, churches etc were all closed at the time.

Yantan Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 Eve I have no idea how or why those pathetic knobs thought the local lad was Jewish. I do know him and though he's not Jewish it wouldn't matter a jot if he was. It was pleasantly warm, low 20'sC/70'sF yesterday and set to be the same today. I do feel for those sweltering in much higher temperatures elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owl Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 A bit cooler today. Wispa brought me a sun hat first thing, meaning do not take that tea back to bed, bring it out into the garden and keep me company. It was indeed lovely out there at 6.30. We will go to the reserve early evening I think, water polytunnels etc, and stay until dark. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owl Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 Wispa gets concerned if I sing, she thinks there is something very wrong with me. Got a message to say someone else has done the watering, so only mine at home to do tonight. Let off the hook, might even get away with not going out at all if Wispa can be persuaded. Doing it tomorrow. I have grown some spuds, if you could call it growing because I didn't do anything. Threw some salad potatoes which had sprouted and gone green into a large garden refuse bag with all my old compost from containers and various veg peelings etc, and kept watered. Now have lots of really nice mini spuds. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griff Posted August 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 Well done Owl!! I always wondered if that would work....now I know lol Jazz, very brave going out with a bad tummy....I can't bear the thought of possibly having to use a public loo, wasn't keen before but with covid.....oooooo not for me! Been to town, swapped a top that was labelled as the wrong size, then primarni beckoned so I ended up buying a couple of new bikini tops then I called Steve, did he want anything...most normal people request groceries, not my geek..... bloody tripod for his new camera Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
