the 25th

The aircon is doing the best it can, holding at just under 30^C with max power. I have the living room/kitchen closed off and the rats and I are in it.. Going through any doors feels like they're airlocks to the alien planet of the summer outdoors in Perth. I was up early to water the garden, then online chatting to Gillian in Canberra, currently enjoying a mild 18^C. After lunch, unconsciousness beckoned. The rats were asleep too and it's very infectious, being in a room with ten creatures who are so good at achieving the sleep state that some seem to rarely leave it.

Temp beginning to go down now. Locally we got to 38^C and it's a couple less now. I know nowhere is likely to be open for icecream or Coke, two things I neglected to stock because sick, but may go for a walk around anyhow this evening. I know one shop which just may be open. This has been extremely peaceful.

Spud shed. But that's a fair hike.

That anonymous comment was me, about the servos being open. Hope you're feeling better!

Ok, was wondering ;-) Yeah, feeling better but still got itchy throat and coughing, which is a pain. I couldn't be doing much more than I am right now anyhow, sick or well! How are you doing, back in suburbia?

Esperance today is enjoying a pleasant 29^C. I wish I could go with you. This is hitting me hard; felt quite groggy while out watering. Would have helped if I'd done it at 7am when I first woke ad not fallen asleep again. Don't even have anything to watch unless I can get something on the ASUS. Maybe I will just go back to sleeeep.
