Desultory

That was a very hot day- a record-breaker. I watched tennis in a desultory fashion and made a fruit pie- using red currants, black currants and gooseberries out of the kitchen garden. My phone woke me in the middle of the night, pleading for a refill so I got up, plugged it in and stuck my nose out the front door to see if it were raining yet- only it wasn't. Rain is, however, forecast for later today and really I'll be rather pleased to see it.

We had a storm yesterday and it's currently raining now, so it's much cooler here. We really only had one very hot day.

We had a little rain today, but that's all.

Frustratingly, knowing I had to be ready for a medical examination today, I played it safe on Wednesday, not venturing out into that wondrous warmth. *sigh* (And today was simply occupied by that, quick bit of shopping, a snooze due to rather poor sleep last night, signing on, and preparing for and undertaking a second interview. Might be able to get out rabbiteering on Friday, though - after an "access all areas" tour of Charing Cross, including the defunct Jubilee connection. Should be nice and cool down there.. *cough*)

Was the rain as much of a no-show as here? I took the coat along in the bag, to be on the safe side, but thankfully only needed to use it briefly in the morning.

The rain brushed past us a couple of times, but mostly it's been a cloudy day with brief glimpses of the sun.
