Thanks Marty. Ever since I first heard it at age 11 I've thought Pictures at an Exhibition was a neat bit of music. That version was really great bro.

It's currently 84/29° but 71% humidity makes it feel like 91/33°.

This level of heat and humidity plays havoc with my migraines.

Dinner is a prime rib and bake potatoes with a sour cream/cottage cheese and chive sauce. Yum!

And, because I've had a really busy day, culminating in a Zoom meeting from 7pm to 9pm, I have just rung the local chip shop and asked them to prepare fish and chips for me. I shall collect it in 10 minutes. 

Double yum!

Morning, all!

Not too bad of a day here, following the first dry day for a while yesterday. Currently about 19°C (66°F) with hardly any wind, although there is a forecast risk of the odd thunderstorm.

Expecting a phone call from my builder sometime today. Hopefully that means that he will be able to get on with some of the outstanding work in the near future.

G'day y'all. Bit dreary here today. Overcast with a current temp of 74/23° and 91% humidity. It's drizzled a bit this morning. Started while I was walking. Not enough to make my shirt wet, that was all sweat. Eventually it did rain enough to make everything outdoors wet. Last evening we had a t-storm with very heavy wind and rain. Lasted nearly two hours. Prevented mum and the pup from taking their after dinner perambulation.

Blessed be my brothers and sisters.

Aloha Dughlas hoping your well todayWe have been having hot weather and then Lighting storms followed by fires! And smoke 😝

Morning, bro.  Some rain here too... sporadic, and not a lot.

Just after 3pm here, and the temperature's climbed a couple of degrees to 21°C (70°F). Fortunately the humidity's only 51%, and there's still no sign of any thunderstorms.  

In other news, the estate agent (realtor) through whom I bought the house has finally taken down the For Sale sign on the front wall. It was too high for me to consider climbing up a ladder to remove. The sale was finalised on 2nd October last year, almost 9 months ago. I think it may have been me telling him at the weekend that I was thinking of invoicing him for the nine months of advertising space that prompted him to make good on his many promises to take it down...

I have found that nothing is too high.

Hi, Gary!

Today is promised to be the warmest of the week. Expected to drop back down to the mid teens (C) over the next few days or so.

It's a beautiful day here.  Supposed to get up to the mid-upper 70s with the possibility of rain this afternoon.  I had a doctor appointment early this morning and all looks well   I went grocery shopping afterward so have a fully stocked fridge and freezer.  I'll be taking the last of the photos I need for the model horse show I'm participating in.  I should be done uploading everything this weekend.
