On Wednesday evening Boris Johnson and Ursula Von Der Leyen had a working dinner whilst they discuss the BREXIT negotiations. The entree and main meal were fish (scallops & turbot) whilst the dessert was an Australian style pavlova. Someone in the EU has a sense of humour.
One wonders if Boris mentioned to Ursula she should saviour the fish as they were about to become rare!
Meanwhile Jan and I huddle under the air-conditioning unit reading narrowboat blogs containing photos of snow and icicles. Oh for those good years!!! You can always add more layers of clothing if you are cold. But there is only so much clothing to be removed when it gets hot!
Here it’s another day close to 40°C and we are avoiding going outside wherever possible. I did go out earlier in the morning to replace the broken hinges on the lid of the camper trailer freezer compartment.
Some sand has been levelled around the pool in preparation for the laying of the pavers. However that project has gone on hold after I discovered the pool isn’t level. That has resulted in further discussions with the pool installer.
Whilst writing about the pool I should mention how surprised I’ve been about the volume of water being lost to evaporation. But then it has been quite hot during the last 7 days.
Unfortunately I’m not having much success with my culinary skills.
