By 10:00 am the temperature was over 30. Sensible today, we lurked inside until the temperature reached 36. Then we went to the pub.

There was some sort of soccer national grand final on, but the heat was calming the hooligans, so we sipped a couple of cool ones in peace before raiding the cheese and wine shop. Caprinelle and a 2002 Grenache, for those paying attention.

Back home, and the heat was sufficient to cause silliness. That or the beer. Whatever the cause, the swimming pool was too tempting. We were happily splashing around when the cool change came through, bringing a thunderstorm with it. The temperature plummeted to a manageable 29, and the rain hammered down amid sheets of lightning. We got out when the rain stopped.

Summer may be late, but it's very welcome.
