Holding at Hot

 We were well-prepared for another sweltering day.

I went out early to pick up a new desk fan to try and give us a bit of respite and we drank lots of water and juice all day.

Nevertheless, as the sun came round to fully illuminate the flat we ran for the hills.  Well, a nearby railway arch.

We knew Martha's would be relatively quiet and there was a decent chance of a coolish space. We took a game, books and bottle of cold water, just in case.

Therein we spent a very pleasant few hours with good beer, comfy seats and not too much noise.

Today there's lots of cloud, there's been some rain (not a huge amount) and the temperature is around 8-deg cooler than the last few days.  It's not actually cool but it's sooooo much nicer.

I've just made the first piece of cooked "food" since we arrived:  a bacon sandwich.  Since Thursday we have exclusively been eating a dinner of bread, cheese, meat, tomatoes.  You never know, I might cook something exciting this evening...
