The sun is blazing down from a cloudless sky. There's no breeze to speak of and it's 25C (77F). The humidity is about 80%. An hour ago I spent half an hour sawing up some scrappy old logs for my fire pit. I got into such a lather that I turned the garden hose on myself. There was no-one around I hasten to add. Not typical Cornwall September weather! We don't get those balmy Mediterranean evenings unfortunately (hence the fire pit, which at least has the compensation of driving the mozzies away). So we'll be sitting outside 'til bedtime again. I'm just off to check if I have something chilling in the fridge.
