We've had one of our expected heatwaves when the temperature doesn't drop below the mid 20s overnight. Makes it hard work when one doesn't have air-con, which we don't.

Al, you have my sympathies. Every now and then I'm tempted back into the conversation (the political ones, I mean) but I feel like my comments are treated like unexploded grenades.

Goodness!

It's like looking for golden needles in a haystack.

Thanks Jude.

"I can't find on google but it's delicious"...words to stand by.

That's something I've never heard of, Maria.
