Another Edinburgh?

I'm sure you all remember when the Editor, me and Jeremy went to Scotland and they recorded the highest temperature ever. I ran 10km with Jeremy that day to the beach and back. We've only just got over the sight of those British bodies on the beach.

The last few days, the weather forecast has been predicting 'near record' temperatures.

What should we do today? Let's go on a 8km hike. To be fair, a lot of it was through a forest so it was a bit cooler.

There was a lake and a toilet halfway and we were allowed to go to Maccas after so there can't be too many complaints.

We went to a shop called Auchan. It was massive in its enormousness.

While most people would have headed to the wine aisle (or perhaps in France somewhere a little classier), we headed straight for the cordial aisle. We took home heaps last time and we're going close to our baggage limit again. "Anything to declare?" they will say, with us replying that we are addicted to sucre. How goodly is my French coming on?

Anyway, the ingredients for lasagne were purchased to satisfy Jeremy’s longing for Mum's cooking only for the oven "to be funny".

On a positive note, the lower layers were good and Colorbond are very interested in the top layer for roofing.

We played a game called Codeword where mother and son cheated their way to victory and called it a night.
