Too hot

Another warm day - actually, my pillow needs hanging out to dry aftyer last night - still, only a couple more days of this heatwave, and no sign yet of the awful flying ants.

This is Britain, we complain when it's too hot in the summer, when it's too cold in the winter, when the wrong kind of snow or leaves on the line bring the trains to a halt. We complain about the ripoff prices ... have I missed anything?


Not feeling particularly sunny today, as dad's car packed up yesterday - back from the shops, parked outside, went to go out again... plenty of starter, but not one single splutter - and the guy called out wasn't a lot of use either, despite the callout being more than the breakdown insurance limit for home cover.

Could be anything, and with all the perishing electronics in them now, it could be an expensive anything!

as a famous group of musicians once said 'It's Grim up North!' and boy were they right!!!!!!!!!

here on the NE coast it's been pissing down most days in the last week and no sign of sun. Today is OK but not the best!

I'm on me holidays and there doesn't seem to be many occasion to get the roof down on the car :(

Well, some parts of London had floods, and after all the effort they've gone to to clean up the river Thames and get fish back in there, the total lack of sewer maintainence led to sewage backing up and being dumped into the river - apparently it'll take years to undo the damage.

BBC News - Storm sewage kills fish in Thames

BBC News - Victorian water legacy needs facelift

BBC News - Action pledged on Thames sewage


And of course, in the autumn, we will suffer from leaves on the line, and in winter, the "wrong kind of snow".

2012 Olympics for Britain? don't make me laugh...
The millennium dome, a costly white elephant that was over budget, and closed early.
The millennium bridge, otherwise known as the wobbly bridge.
And then, there's Wembley stadium, or at least, there might be, sometime!

I mustn't drift into politics (banned subject on this forum), but there seems to be a pattern of incompetence, uselessness and stupidity at every level.
