It’s been hot and humid for two days now. I noticed this when I was on my way out of the office yesterday. Upon leaving the cloistered confines of air-conditioned niceness I was enveloped by muggy, hot, humid air.
At Richmond station I bought some Lucozade Sport drink as my legs felt tired from the previous two days exertions. I have to say that I was sceptical that it would make any difference. Difference it did make, though. Every 10 minutes I took a little sip and found I could keep and steady 17mph in 5th gear without too much exertion.
When I arrived home I was sweating profusely. I immediately went upstairs for a shower. Nice!
Jake was a little tired. He had been at Sam’s house and had obviously spent his time charging around.
Today it is hot again. I have just filled up Jake’s paddling pool and it is warming up in the sunshine. Ames is suffering a little in the heat and feeling lethargic and a little sick.
The plumber came earlier to fix the shower. He said the problem was just a big airlock in the pipes. I am a little dubious but it did seem to be a good temperature and alright pressure. He is still blaming the electrician who, he says, should have wired the pump properly.
