We're already half way through June, so time to listen to a few men in knitted fishing hats, and women in crisp white pinafores, singing their hearts out. Enjoy.

Optimistic Cro!
The difference between an optimist and a pessimist, is that the optimist enjoys himself whilst waiting for the inevitable! I AM that optimist!

About Me
- Cro Magnon
- I was born just south of London, but for the past 50 years I've lived in S W France. I am a painter by profession, and writer by desire. Lady Magnon and I live between an ancient cottage in a tiny village in perfectly tranquil French countryside, and a bijou townhouse in Brighton UK. In France we have plenty of fruit trees, all situated amongst a view that takes the breath away, in the UK we have a handkerchief sized patio. We also have a Border Collie called Billy. I try to treat our planet with respect, and encourage others to do likewise (without preaching). Contentment is a glass of red, a plate of charcuterie, and a slice of good country bread. Perfect!
It's just after 8 am, and the temperature is already 24 C. I've done all my mowing, and will probably spend the rest of the day either indoors or in the pool. The pool temp is now 30 C; no longer very refreshing. Shade temperature will reach almost 40 C today.
ReplyDeleteScorchio.
ReplyDeleteThe sun is peeping through here. May reach 19C max later.
I've just had a swim; not very cooling.
DeleteI enjoyed that. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI can picture you dancing on Ilkley Moor.
DeleteBah tat!
DeleteIt was a very different sort ofJune back then. Those characters are still wearing suits and long sleeve tops. They'd be falling down with heatstroke today..
ReplyDeleteIt's still cool-ish today. No need for aircons yet and cool breezes in the morning and evening. If only it would stay this way
Too hot here, but rain/storms are forecast for next week.
DeleteGay men had nothing to do with the production of this number.
ReplyDeleteDon't get excited Andrew!
DeleteWhat movie is this from?
ReplyDeleteCarousel, I think!
