This Weather.....

The lawns should come back. Look at some of the places in America. Doing what grass does during drought.

Grass still green at the back. Will be in big trouble when the inevitable hosepipe ban arrives.

To be fair it does it most summers anyway as it's in full sun all day, so yeah it'll come back, but this year its just come away, just a dusty patch.

Going to be quite warm next week too.

Just driven to Canterbury. Still too hot. 

Be lovely if I was on the beach, but otherwise its sort of a dessicated, deathless sort of heat. Partched and in need of some freshness.

Best summer since 2018

What a fucking wally. Just tried to use a car wash in Kent.

Funnily enough, wasn't working.

Nah 2018 was lovely, actually as was 2020, but you guys were locked down for most of that summer. This has been relentless.

Can't say I've ever been if it's still there. Usually down in Ramsgate or Whitstable if it's nice. Sandy Beach is great there (the rest is pebbles) but you need to be there eaither first thing or late in the afternoon as the beach is completely covered at high tide.

Or Hythe if we fancy going posh.

Yeah still there and used by kids playing football/cricket and local youths smoking.

Folkestone in parts has really changed and had a lot of money put in in. I'd certainly be happy to move there, something I wouldn't have said when I first moved down.

As I'm getting older, quite like the idea of Kent countryside, just as the kids are begging us not to move as they like us being in London!

Feels a bit odd packing waterproofs and wellies in this weather for next week but needs must! 😂

Lucky Barrow fans today slumming it in West Lancs.

Central London is a sweatbox.

And full of tourists.

Roll on autumn.
