The weather forecast is for hot. Indeed the predicted
temperature is for 33°C, a very un-English sort of temperature.
Today’s dinner was going to be Beef Popovers with roast
potatoes & green beans. It’s suddenly changed to a tuna salad. We’ll get
some fresh salad ingredients when we go to the shops. So far I’ve boiled some
eggs ready.
This time, unlike yesterday, it does look like the
weather forecasters have got it right. The warmth & sun did arrive
yesterday afternoon. We sat out to dine, desperate to get away from our
sweltering kitchen in which I’d made some Spicy Baked Eggs, sautéed potatoes
& broccoli. By the time the cooking was done the Fox was just about passing
out in the heat.
I feel a vague siege mentality is setting in. There’s
only a day or two to survive the heat, then it should return back to rain &
more normal temperatures. Personally, so far I’m coping well, even quite
enjoying it, but the Fox is definitely suffering. It’s not helped by having a
running nose & prickly eyes as hay fever is setting in. Hopefully he will
feel more like himself at the end of the week.
