Social life, yahoooooooo!

Sometimes there's nothing for weeks. Then everything comes together on the same day. But I'm not complaining; on the contrary.

Anyway, I got up in a fool mood. In fact, I've been in a fool mood for days, for no apparent reason (save for the heat). I almost skipped today's extra choir practice, which would have been a shame, as it took place at 2pm, when all my still active (ex-)colleagues were at school. So there was a lot of hugging and talking and laughing for the next ten minutes. It was really nice.

I managed to do what little shopping was to be done before choir practice, so I still caught the second half of "The Repair Shop" extra afterwards. And then, just when the GBBO started, another retired colleague phoned, asking if I'd like to go down to the playground next to our building, since she was there with her two little grandkids. Of course I wanted, so I hopped down, took my way-too-smart phone with me and took photos of the little cuties, so that Mum could see them, too. It was just a short encounter, but the smaller one, a little girl, I had never seen before, so I was very happy about it.

Aforementioned way-too-smart phone tells me that it's 27 degrees outside. Honestly, it feels more, perhaps because of all the concrete monstrosities all around us. I fear summer has decided to come in earnest.

That's great you had such a social day.
Still 32° at 8 p.m. and I still have to water the garden.

I think 27 was accurate, the big heat is elsewhere (Germany?) at the moment. Here we were up to deadly 28 :)). Still haven't made it up to 30 :)))

Gah, that sounds awful!

I dread the day when all that big heat finds its way over the Alps, as it inevitably does each year. For me 27 degrees are already a tad much, although I can live with them.

That's lovely that your colleague asked you to join hanging out at the playground. So easy, just like the old childhood days :)

It is just about warm enough hear to not need a coat. My also way too smart computer says it's nineteen degrees. How lovely of your colleague to ring for a meet up like that. I hope you get to do that again.

Exactly!

So do I, honestly. :)

That sounds like a nice day — apart from the heat. 27C is about the point where I begin to feel over hot — and we almost always have a breeze with it.
