Urgh ...

It is 37C here today, which is 98.6 in Fahrenheit. I believe we may have sorbet for dinner. There is STILL A MONTH OF SPRING TO GO. Apparently, I am going to die in summer, alas.

And if there are any anthropogenic climate change deniers out there, just keep it to yourself as I am liable to blow steam out of my ears at the moment. I miss the days of simple El Niños ...

I hope the dessert bar has council approval. And opens soon. And is full of iced desserts and a wee bit of air-conditioning. I'm happy to pay extra for their carbon offsets!

My brother phoned me earlier to say it was reading over 40 deg on his car climate control at 6.30pm as he drove through Gladesville. This is crazy.

We're apparently expecting mid 30s next week, although we've been hitting higher than forecast for the last few days, regardless of the forecast.

*sigh*

I think I could have been happy living and dying before the time of Global Warming. I'm going back to working on my heart attack. Bugger this longevity thing. I'm outta here before the oil crisis and water crisis coincide and it all gets just a bit messy around the edges.

New Zealand, Mere! I have a friend who is a geologist there, or two of my engineering friends are down in Tassie. I bring textiles production and agricultural knowledge to the mix, we can rebuild civilisation, but better!
