A Bank Holiday record!

I was working today with Kathy, so Sophie dropped me off, and she managed to go through the barrier and drop me off by the entrance. It was already hot, and I was dreading how warm our office would be. It was very warm, so I turned on all the fans and lowered the blinds to stop the glare from the sun.

Kathy and I had a pleasant shift, and it was great to leave at 2:00pm and go home with Sophie. She brought me a bottle of water as I'd forgotten to pack one, and I was thirsty! I had even skipped my usual morning cup of coffee as it was so warm!

Back at home, we had a late lunch and sat chatting in the kitchen for a while before going upstairs and lying on the bed with the fan. I hate how the heat makes me feel, and we talked seriously about getting air-conditioning for the bedrooms and living room if this heat becomes the norm. The temperature was saying it was 33 °C on the way home, and our kitchen was about 29 °C. Today has set a record for the hottest May Bank Holiday! Phew!

Before dinner, we watched MasterChef, and the final is drawing near. I think we'll be able to catch it before we go to France on the 12th of June. Dinner was a simple "build-your-own" wrap with salad and crispy chicken, and then Keith and I watched the first episode of the new series of Panda, which was brilliant.

Going to bed was not pleasant as the upstairs of the house was stiflingly hot and oppressive. Imagine how great it would be if we had air-conditioning!
