66? That’s not bad. Amazingly it’s only 74 here, but next wk it suppose to bump all the way to high 90’s.

I need to more vocal about the weather in the UK! The last time I posted on this forum I was pointing out that we get small quantity of snow (not every year!) Soon after my post, we had massive snow storms going into weeks of snow!!! And now we are experiencing a heat wave!! 25c plus.. fantastic weather (nearly 2months of sun so far) but I don't like the humidity (40% to 50% range).

Car said 122° when I got in to prep for my first 3 minutes of glory yesterday. I think the heat from the asphalt through the shoes was one of the odder bits, and tough to mitigate. Left the house at 6am, got home at 9:30pm. I enjoyed it so much I'm back out today. Should get home a little earlier at least. Already so very tired.

Soon our railway network will come to standstill because the tracks are warping. We can't cope with extremes of any kind of weather!

OK, ma ma found her shoes, so we are off to have brunch at my favorite brunch place, and then take a drive.

I detailed the whole FR-S this morning. Yep, cleaned off both sides of the outside of the windshield, cleaned the left rear view mirror, cleaned the rear window and wiped off that hump (hood and left front fender) that I see while driving. In addition, I cleaned the exhaust tips (because that's what I look at when I'm walking away from the car).

Cut 1 section at time, drink some beer with snacks. At the end you will be wasted but lawn was mowed, for me is a win win
