I haven't been my usual jolly self lately, which, I suspect, has influenced the blog posts. It's partly to do with weather—really, who can concentrate when it's 33C inside the house?—but it's mostly to do with work. Last week was a particular bastard as we had to make some hard decisions. The fall out from those decisions will drift around for a long time.

The good news is that, although I can't do anything about the job*, a 'cool' change has come through, bringing rain with it. It's hot and humid now but in a few hours time it will be warm and humid. And maybe even cool and humid by the morning.

I hope to get back to my livelier blogging self soon. Thank you for bearing with me.

*Well, I could leave. And that's a decision that's moving from hard to piece of cake as the year progresses.
