    It's presently 22C here.

    The rush hour starting has created a breeze. It feels cooler than it has all night.

    Similar here - there's also been some thunder rolling around somewhere, near enough to hear but not to identify exactly where. My broadband's been going up and down like a yo-yo and has finally settled at less than half what it was before :(
    Will leave it for a few hours to make sure it's stable for that time, then reboot the router to see if that brings the speed back.

    Feel crap, lost my voice this morning although it is coming back. My head is throbbing and I live for the next time I can take a paracetamol.

    And it's rained all day.

    And the water company is digging the road up all night so I had a lousy night's sleep. And last night they mucked it up so I have had no water all day and am seriously contemplating making risotto with bottled water.

    Oh and my head hurts and I can barely speak. Did I mention that?

    GAH!

    Do they have ibuprofen in Oz? You can take that alongside paracetamol.

    going somewhere quieter and cooler may help! nothing worse than a broken night sleep.

    I have been taking both today but good tip.

    I was thinking about killing the incompetent water workers in cold blood to get a quiet night although TBH I'm so tired I can't imagine anything keeping me awake.

    The water has still not come back on and the emergency works were meant to finish at 4pm.

    Think we are hanging onto the heat for a little longer in this part of the country as it is already 28 degrees in my bedroom with windows open (as they have been all night). More of a breeze though but still not a cloud in the sky....for the moment.
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
    Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.

    Wine is the answer. In risotto and glass.

    I heard on the Radio this morning it was 23 degrees in London at 7.15am meanwhile I looked outside my window in Glasgow to the thunder and lightning. :rotfl:

    I hate to sound like a grump but I love the horrid weather. I sat with my coffee this morning with my back door open just watching the sky. Loved it.

    You should consider an extended break in the NT or Queensland, they have mental weather there.
