What are you avoiding doing in this heat?

Absolutely nothing except hang the washing out.

My phone has emigrated as it reads 14C whereas it is 24 degrees in London and rising.

I will unload the Sainsbury's goodies with the driver watching me. It should arrive soon so something decent for tonight's supper.

I love every minute of the sunshine. I Spent the night in my tent in a friend’s garden it was glorious to wake up surrounded by country sounds. I was meant to be staying in my camper van but a flat battery prevented the vans first outing this year.
May the sun shine all summer.

I was in the garden at 8.00am and did an hours gardening. The temperature when i started was a pleasant 18 degrees. It is now nearer 10 degrees higher and I am inside having a sit down and a cool drink.

I will potter around for the rest of the day, a bit of cleaning, and then contemplate starting to make the living room curtains

Really lucky as I have shade in some part of the garden all day so I just move around. I don’t go for my walk in the heat I went at 7am this morning and it was really nice and cool. Today my book and bottle of water that’s all I’ll be doing most of the day.

I like sunny days but the heat saps my energy.
I can’t do anything energetic for more than 20 minutes.
I have watered the plants but am not going outside until there is some shade. The housework will have to wait. I have no plans for today but will try to tick some admin jobs off my list.
