It's hotting up!

It already felt warm when I went to work this morning, and I was amazed to find one of the radiators on in the corridor as I walked in! I turned it right down and set up fans in our office to keep it cool. It was just Sharon and me working today, and the suite of offices was very quiet. I had dealt with all the emails before 9:00am, but one of our managers came in and said that lessons had been cancelled again at a local school, and could I send out emails and then call the parents? 

Doing this kept Sharon and me busy all afternoon, and the parents were surprisingly understanding. It may have helped that the half-term holidays start today, so a lot of children may be going away this evening anyway. It was great to escape at 4:00pm and make my way to where Keith was waiting for me. The temperature was registering 30 °C, but it went down to 28 °C on the way home, thank goodness!

Keith wasn't at the pub this evening as John is in France, so he kept himself to himself in the kitchen while Sophie and I watched the two episodes of Race Across The World back to back. The contestants were now in Mongolia, which looked beautiful but cold and remote! We opened a bottle of the Chardonnay I'd bought in Duncan's shop, and it was delicious.

We had a spicy curry for dinner, and then it was half an hour of Have I Got News For You before bed. It's the weekend!
