Sizzling time

Very hot today.  Lorraine and I lay in bed with the doors of our balcony wide open. But up fairly early for a kipper breakfast with a bronzed and healthy looking Sam, who told us a bit about his travels seeing Jade in Scotland and Ali in Minorca. 

Lorraine set to writing her last batch of school reports eschewing her normal turquoise ink for a regal purple. After writing each school year, she recharged by playing star dew valley for a bit.

I made off across the basking park to the gym at lunchtime for a sweaty workout. At least there is air conditioning there.

Otherwise little to report. I found the 'lost' Planet Poetry recordings on the Buzzsprout site. We had been defeated by the change in interface, and otherwise loafed about in the shadows.

Off to Seaford at tea time to collect some stained glass from Adele. Lorraine had commissioned her to do a piece for the school as the traditional leaving present of departing heads. She did a great job on the piece. As it was dinner time and Lorraine had been manacled to her reports all day, we went out for a bite, Amie's Kitchen which is Vietnamese food. Excellent noodles etc and Patrick and I enjoyed a couple of Saigon beers. Cheery time. And Lorraine established that the nice lady we were talking to was Amie herself.

Lorraine and I drove home towards the purple and orange sunset. Both of us wanting to wave a magic wand over the sluggish house buying process and be in Seaford.
