A blistering hot Friday afternoon!!

Tropical cyclone storm Eloise is heading our way! Might get the tail end of it so I’m enjoying the sun and the pool this afternoon.

Adios! Nursing a Gin and tonic by the pool (alcohol prohibition during lockdown)





What’s your plans for the afternoon OFF members?

Re: A blistering hot Friday afternoon!!

Hi Minx. My afternoon was a lot more active than yours.
I went a walk to a local castle ruin with my daughter. 5 hilly & sludgy miles. I enjoyed it though.

Just got back - ready for a rest now.

Oh, I do envy you! It's rainy and cool here this morning.

I checked the track, and though I'm not sure exactly where you are, it looks like Mozambique will get the worst of it. Hopefully you will just see some cooling winds and rain.

We have been seeing an uptick of tropical storms and hurricanes here in number and strength in the last few years. Have you?

Enjoy your relaxation! Cheers!

Re: A blistering hot Friday afternoon!!

Oh I too am so jealous. It's very cold here and its been rainy and miserable. Visited my dear old Dad this lunchtime then called on a friend to give her a birthday present but we had to stand outside and it was freezing brrrrrrrrrr.

I'd give anything to be in your shoes right now and jump in that pool. Our local gym pool is closed because of lockdown and I'm tearing my hair out, I want to go so bad.

Just got back from taking my old doggie for a little walk, he can't walk far because of his condition unfortunately.

Haven't done anything else today, I'm about to keep myself busy now by playing scrabble online and then I'm going to design some graphics to make for my online personalized gift shop. My favourite pastime right now.

Not a lot. Strolled the dogs by the Roman Ridge. Met a few (at 2.0 m distance) including a St Bernard's. Sunshine here but frosty rather than your cyclone.

If you don't mind, can you remind me which area of SA? Aphasia is still a problem for me but improving.

Sounds like a brilliant afternoon out!
