Much fresher this morning with a nice cool breeze blowing. It was still 25c at 2am however a change in wind direction has brought the temperature down. A max of only 28c forecast for today which will do me especially after yesterday's hellish heat.

My predictions for the Scottish group
Haiti 2 Scotland 1
Morocco 1 Scotland 1
Brazil 0 Scotland 2
You been in the pub?
I'll go for them drawing every game but only if they play Brazil first. I think England will win all three.
-
Will Scotland be drawn with England?
England got off lightly as have Argentina. Scotland got Brazil which is a toughie.

An overcast 23c at the mo with a much fresher feel. Here's hoping it stays that way.
Wishful thinking.....it's ruddy roasting again.
To top it all off I burnt the tips of my left hand fingers with scolding polenta.

How big are these monsters? 3-4 inches? Or besides clearing out the thistles, should we call in Crocodile Dundee?
I've seen ones 3-4 feet in length. First time I've heard of them swallowing children though. I'd better look out and start carrying my Crocodile Dundee knife.

K loving La Razon de Chivilcoy have a history of reporting news stories against the Council here no matter how trivial they are. However one of today's headline stories takes the biscuit. Seems the lizards here are partial to eating children.

Woke up this morning to the noise of heavy rain on the roof. I thought that can't be right as no rain was forecast so assumed it was the noise of the aircon. Got up went to the bathroom and sure enough the rain was battering off the skylight window. Didn't last that long but long enough to wet the patio floor when I looked outside.

35.2c was the max here today. Still 31c as dusk falls so I'm pretty sure the aircon will be getting switched on tonight.

A good clue, but no justification for bypassing the legal system that, until now, protected the US Rule of Law. In a court of law, clues are not enough.
I suspect they're keeping a lot of info up their sleeves at the mo.

These hot days we try to get up and out before the heat. Difficult since I am always slow before the coffee
My missus likes her bed too much for that.
It's the sun I hate so evening is better for us once dusk starts to fall. 31.9c here the now and rising. 
-
We used the aircon for the first time this year, especially in my den at the top of the house.
The missus had ours on the other night in the bedroom for a while just to make sure it was working okay for when we'll need it.
Just had a sheet on the bed last night which was fine. However if the heat carries on like this it won't be long until we have to use the aircon.
-
Yesterday's 34c was horrendous. When the missus suggested we go for a healthy walk in the afternoon sun I couldn't believe she was being serious. So I sarcastically suggested our route take us past the hospital as that's where I'd end up in this heat. To be fair she hadn't been outside so had no idea how hot it was.
Might even be hotter today.

3) no one has presented any evidence at all, that these guys were actually drug couriers. They were not charged, tried, found guilty, sentenced. Just summarily executed.
The clue is in the packages they're carrying. I very much doubt they work for DHL/FedEx. If I had my way they would target the boss Maduro.

I’m sure JP Gaultier will be happy to fix you up, for a price. Such beauty ain’t cheap, you know!
But if you can wait a couple of months, there are sure to be plenty of knockoffs rolling out for Mardi Gras costumes.
Think I'll just stick to Marks and Sparks.
-
Gotta laugh when I see certain 'experts' on the telly calling the killing of two drug courier survivors a war crime.

Where can I buy one?

We have a lot of camuati wasp nests out at the quinta. According to the missus their sting is bad however in all my years here I've never been stung. They usually make their nests in trees but last year they built one next to a security camera on the house. It was small but has got much bigger this year and has started to block the view from the camera.

The final World Rugby rankings for 2025. Good show from the Pumas.
-
Overcast and 21c here but the sun's now trying to come out. So I suspect the temperature will shoot up soon as it comes out.

It's worth hanging on to that scanner because they are very expensive new.
Here it is here.
