Good Morning!

Mornin'

Mum said you'd had a bit of a heatwave in England?

Yeah it was 26*°C* in South London yesterday, The kids loved it but also then spent the rest of the day cooling down in baths haha

seancorfield07:05:07

That is seriously hot in England 😞

guy07:05:42

Yeah we're lucky we have a balcony in our 5th floor flat haha, last year we bought 3 fans for just this reason so it was bearable 😄

seancorfield07:05:00

We have two fans, both were in action tonight. 36 C in the house at 7 pm... 😞

seancorfield07:05:40

The cats have A/C. We have A/C in the bedroom. The rest of the house was like the surface of the bloody sun! 🤯

guy07:05:24

Yeah we had fans for the kids too, otherwise its just unfair for them

seancorfield05:05:55

(it's been 96F in the house here at 7 pm the last two days so I'm not sure how that compares?)

seancorfield05:05:24

South of England looks like high '70s this week...

dharrigan05:05:43

It's been rather nice 🙂

dharrigan05:05:22

The "lockdown" has more-or-less fallen apart now...people are on the beaches, at bbq's etc...

oh - kid awake

Morning

Yeah, very warm

Apparently the world is laughing at us over the Cummings incident. People on my dog walks really don't seem to care about leaving space.

I have to remember to drive 30 miles to test my eyesight, oh and also bring my wife and kid and stop at a historic place of interest too, you know, to make sure I can see it properly....

Morning 🙂

seancorfield07:05:05

Hmm, how did I not know Roger Waters had released a new album in 2017? ("Is This The Life We Really Want?")

seancorfield07:05:19

(it's so good I think I can finally forgive him for "Radio K.A.O.S." 🙂 )

Jakob Durstberger07:05:43

Uhh, I’ll have to give that a listen. I got completely hooked on J. J. Cale lately the first two albums “Naturally” and “Really” are amazing

seancorfield07:05:01

Troubadour is phenomenal...

Jakob Durstberger09:05:04

I have listened to the first 5 studio albums so far and I really like them all. But the first 2 stick out to me

dharrigan10:05:05

Dammit - now I'm going down the J.J. Cole rabbithole!

Jakob Durstberger12:05:28

Do it! It’s a fantastic rabbit hole 😄

dharrigan14:05:23

I have Lonesome Train on repeat

dharrigan14:05:01

the rhythm is very conducive.
