Summer finally arrived this weekend, and instead of giving us some nice warm days and cool evenings; the weatherman decided to incinerate the whole country, causing blood to boil and skin to fall off well cooked flesh and bones. OK, that may have been a slight exaggeration, but it has been very, very hot.
Things weren’t helped either by some local kids, who, for some bizarre reason, feel the need to get up at 7am and play outside in their garden. When I say ‘play’, I mean ‘pretended to murder each other’. I have to sleep with my bedroom window open because of the heat, but am then awakened to screaming, crying children.
This blog may make it sound like I had a bad weekend. I didn’t. Friday night I went with Claire and family to Melksham to watch Bath City – a really nice, summers evening. Saturday night was spent by the river at The Dolphin. This afternoon I went to some countryside pub in the heart of Wiltshire. It was extremely hot, although a pint of Thatcher’s did cool me down a lot – surprising that :o)

- A Lucky Escape?
I'm starting to feel less disappointed about our cruise being cancelled.
Had it gone ahead, this week we would be somewhere around the North Sea and Atlantic Ocean.

Now this weather is what I like.
Hopefully there will be no more heatwaves this year...
... - The Heatwave From Hell
The weather on Wednesday night was fecking horrible! I can honestly say that in the 38 years I have been on this planet, I have never lost so much sleep due to the heat. At one point, Claire - equally as overheated as me - gave up and went downstairs to our front room. The temperature on...
- You Call That A Storm?
I asked for a storm. This is what I got.
I would be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed.
The thunder and lightning was very brief, and while the rain sounded heavy, I don't think it lasted long.
If I was to grade the "storm" like a school teacher would mark their pupils' work, it would have...
About Me
So you stumbled across my blog. No doubt after searching for something bizarre on Google. Before you hit that 'Back Button', why not stay and have a read for a few minutes?
If you are after a website which gives advice on how to hack an iPhone X, download the latest Steven Seagal movie, or view nudy ladies, you've come to the wrong place and may now press 'Back'.
However, if you would like a lifestyle blog, written by a 30-something chap, living in Bath (England), feast your eyes on this.
You won't discover how to copy PlayStation 4 games. What you will find is a blog, covering life in the West Country, the highs and lows of supporting two unsuccessful football teams, while sharing a house with a wife and rabbit.
All written by a man, somewhere on the sanity-scale between normal and eccentric.
