True... my vampiric tint has turned a nice toasty brown as well.
Work is my break time, since it has airconditioning that I value a lot at the moment. At home I can hardly sleep.
Weather's cooling down this weekend...

Yesterday, me and two of my workmates spent the whole day at some clients' house, in the country, for an axcellent barbecue. It was planned a few
months ago, to celebrate the end of the renovation of their roof.
Most of the family members we'd met were there, plus a few neighbours we'd spent good times with. So we ate excellent food, drank excellent wine,
laughed a lot, talked a lot about lots of different thing. And since the father has an old Porsche 944, we had a little ride on the country roads that
was much fun.
To top it all off, both my colleagues and I received a thank you present, I had a boxset of Zacapa rum and a book with all the modes, scales and
stuff, my older mate had 3 excellent bottles of wine, and the younger one had an acoustic guitar, thing he'd wanted for quite a long time.
So I guess we can say that was really a awesome day. We already lan to do again after the holidays.

Careful with the sun, Bonny.
Yeah, sleep was sometimes difficult, last week, especially thursday night, it was so hot I could barely sleep. But we had abig stormon friday evening,
so now the temperatures have decreased to an acceptable level.I hope it stays that way till the end of the week, and then goes back to superhot and
sunny for the holidays!!!

I will, Bonny, I will. I've just had a look at it, and it seems to be a good book, with lots of concise but plain information. I'm pretty stoked, even
though I more or less already know some of this stuff after 28 years of playing.
Frozen bottle, that's a good idea!

I guess in the parts of the world you guys are in, air conditioners are about as common as central heating where I am.

In public places, yeah, but in people's homes not so much.

Reverse cycle air conditioners are the solution. It's what we have. The cooling is really necessary in summer, but the heating gets used quite a bit
in winter. In a part of the world where air conditioners are common, the change to reverse cycle air conditioners is pretty straightforward. In parts
of the world with central heating, scrapping that and changing to a reverse cycle air conditioner is a bit more of a pain.

We went to the funfair today - bad idea. The temperatures in the shade were very manageable but the sun was so intense we spent most time resting
under trees.

Yes!!!! it's so good to have a little rain.
Bought my train tickets. Bought my presents for the girls. Packed up my bag. Now waiting until thursday afternoon for the departure.
First, I spend a bit more than two days in Lille, with Laëtitia. Then one day in Paris, with Maria Grazia, and then five days in Montignac, at
Johana's place, where I should be able to see Mercedes, and I hope, Sandra. These last three lasses I haven't seen for 25 years. It's gonna be
emotional, I guess.
