    My apologies: for the record, the car last night was a Ford Fiesta XR2 Mk.I; currently SORN but has an MOT until next March

      Lunch has been a couple of ham cobs with a bag of crisps, which is just the thing for this unpleasantly hot weather

        Hot out.

        HWMBO used up the last of the pizza dough in his quest for the perfect product on the BBQ. It's been hell having to try them. This evening he's doing rotisserie chicken. Currently the BBQ is being used to cook off veg as it cools down from the pizza making.

          Something I took the other day in our garden - a female sparrowhawk with it's lunch, a goldfinch, that was still just about alive...

            Really nice tea: lamb shank in a red wine and redcurrant sauce, with chips and peas

            It wasn't quite right yet, as I'm still experimenting. But I've been stocking up on redcurrants while they're in season, so there's plenty in the freezer for when I next have a go

                The car earlier was a Porsche 993, which is apparently a species of 911, as they kept using the numbers interchangeably. Currently SORN, last MOT expired early in 2021

                Later, a bit of Police Interceptors from some years ago, which had by then moved to Lincolnshire

                And then I eschewed further television in favour of reading a bit of The Aquariums of Pyongyang which is Kang Chol-Hwan's memoir of the ten years he spent in a North Korean concentration camp, having been consigned there with most of his family at the age of nine

                Bit warm, innit?

                Goodnight all

                  Morning all

                  CBS, etc. Going to the beach for a swim.

                    Morning denizens

                    Sunny start and it's up to 19°C out there so far, with 30° expected later. Barometers are trivially down at 1020/1028mB

                    Managed to keep it down to 25° in here overnight

                      That's better.
