Miss M and I just returned from having dumplings, and it’s pouring with rain. Perfect after the insanely muggy day we’ve had, with the most relentless headwind I’ve ever ridden in. Luckily I had Rage Against the Machine to help me through.

We tried to go for a swim this afternoon, but the pool was closed to normal humans, being used by the world’s elite swimmers and divers for practice. So we did what anyone would, and bought organic gelato instead. Miss M’s was raspberry (insanely pink), mine was blood orange and tasted like Fanta.

One of the main characters on Neighbours has died - lame to the extreme, except for an awesome crane shot I think my brother built the rig for. Definitely the best thing about the episode. Which I mean as a compliment, but comes off as slightly backhanded (unintentionally Jimminy, I swear!)

I found a pair of boots today I’d forgotten I had, which is very cool, since in the last couple of days I’ve been scoping out boots to buy. Almost identical to these ones, except red. Now I just have to convince myself I don’t need red ones as well … or do I? Hopefully tomorrow it’ll be cool enough to wear them. Sick of hot weather - too hard to be glam!

I’ve got a hankering for berries, and will be buying every different kind I can get my hands on at the market tomorrow. With peaches and nectarines if they’re around. And maybe grapes.

Today I’m loving: BBG (!)
