We reached a very warm and windy 28C (feels like 23C) here today, though I did manage to battle the wind to get my 1st huge wicking tub ready for my compost guru to go into it which I'll mix up tomorrow morning as it just got far too hot and windy to do today.

I've had butternut pumpkin seedlings popping up over the last 2 days and my 1st potato plants just started to show up today.

Anyhow it's again time to call it a night.

Cheers.

And by 'eck, there is a lot of sogginess out there.

Hopefully my roads and tracks are still nicely in place and not under mud and water...

I'll soon be finding out...

Winning on a Monday morning where it's 8C (felt like 6C) with a summery 28C is again expected here.

Anyhow time for a coffee before doing the weekend dishes.

Cheers.

Sunny morning here as well 7C.

Monday morning, off to work.
59 f now before dawn with a high 78f here on the island. 70f hight at work.

Posting on another road trip Tuesday morning.

We kicked off here at 8C (felt like 5C) while 29C is expected.

Cheers.

Yep... There was mud and water and in some places gravel and shingle where tarmac should have been... Hopefully that gets cleared up before my return. Regardless, just in case, I'll be returning via a slightly slower but much lower route.

... And... So... Here am I, with full mechanical toolkit and... The fixes needed turn out to be software, wetware, and untangling a tangled history of numbers...

At least the extra metalwork aided in extra traction on the muddy bits!

And hopefully I get to return before my emergency supplies run out!

(Not sure I can put online food/beer orders on expenses...)

During an extended road trip today the temp here did reach 29C (felt like 25C).

[edit] But I can see now that I'll crash soon and be up again at silly hours.

Cheers.

It is raining here and cold 12C.

Been raining since 1:00 am or a little before. Predicting rain close to 24 hours before it stops.

The experts here have threatening us with some fore the last few days, but none turned up. :-(

Though maybe we'll get lucky yet over the next few days (or not, yet again), but even if we do there's a good chance of frosts again over the weekend.

Anyhow I think that I've stretched today to my limits.

Cheers.

Hmph...
The weather is being really perverse just now. We've gained "proper" autumnal stuff - cold, damp, a bit misty, and a very shy sun peering around the edge of the murk.....

Of all good plans and...

Multiple random surprises and pride hiding reality and... Best is to pause to reassess how best fix!

Time for a double brew of caffeine to plan anew...

Coffee is a magical brew - drinking it allows one to do more things quicker, and cures the need for sleep.

The only thing coffee is doing to me is pushing my blood pressure.
So i avoid it.

Posting on a Hump Day morning while it's still cool and before the sun rises to heat us up to an expected 30C today.

Anyhow it's coffee time.

Cheers.

Working on my second pot of coffee.

There's a lot of smoke hanging over the coast this morning giving us an orange tinged start to the day here after a 10C (felt like 9C) kick off to it.

Anyhow it's now time for a 2nd coffee.

Cheers.
