Another very hot day yesterday, apparently the third hottest on record in the UK. We recorded highs of between 33 and 36, depending on which thermometers you believe. Resisting the temptation to head for the coast on the grounds that everybody else would either be there or jamming the roads on the way there, we headed for Hanningfield Reservoir instead - both some water and plenty of shade on the footpaths between the (closed) Visitor Centre and the Fishing Lodge. That gave a decent length of walk and this is the view from one of the hides:
The many black bits are flies etc. trapped in spiderwebs across the opening. Personally, I've never seen the attraction of birdwatching. Seen one duck, seen them all... I hope an old friend and very keen birdwatcher never reads this!
Nothing new on the myeloma front today, I just keep taking the tablets and hoping for the best.
