Sunshine


The sun keeps shining and inevitably everyone is getting tired and grumpy.  As for myself this does not make much of a difference.  Remaining indoors, where even this place is warm and air is hard to find, avoids direct heat.  However, the tiredness is showing and occasional grumpiness can be noted elsewhere.  Ideal weather for riots, domestic abuses, and gang fights on the coast.
I avoided all this indoors, and instead watched a game featuring our lower tier local club playing in the 6th division (south).  Considering the heat and the tiredness later in then game only one fracas broke out.  How many pounds the men lost playing in near 30% c I do not know.  Lots of drinking on the way home I bet.
All this while I have gone deaf in one ear.  All around me people are suffering serious problems, I have gone deaf because of wax!  I foolishly washed today, my ears got wet, I tried to avoid them, but now wax has moved and I am half deaf.  No matter what I do, and I used plenty of the stuff in those wee bottles, I remain one eared.  
Not much else is happening, or the media are keeping quiet about it.  Rishi is in India trying to make money, for himself, the Tories are pointing the finger everywhere except at themselves, and kids are back in school, and the press are full of mums whining about uniforms. 
Not much changes...

Sorry to hear about the ear....motto...never wash again.....


We had it boiling hot all morning, followed by a top of the range thunderstorm which is now shabbing off...at least the rain has saved me from watering the balcony tomorrow...

VPN refused to come on...'chat' with support staff who tried to be helpful but eventually gave up. Luckily the subscription ends at the end of this month.
I have found another VPN which took six goes to download and install, have yet to see if it works.....

Fly, I will take your advice and stop washing. VPN sounds useful but downloaded in only 6 goes? That is fast!
