Cassie, Musings of a Cheshire Tart

It looks like the hot summer we have all been wishing for has arrived or has it?

Do you remember the summers when at midday the skies were so blue, the air motionless and you could hear crisp rasp of dry grass under your feet.  All is quiet apart for the odd cricket. The heat of the sun would make your skin feel dry and warm and radiate deep to your core.

Where have those days gone? These days a hot sunny day is always a sticky muggy affair and a thunderstorm is never far away. When they told us 20 years ago that global warming would affect the UK, I welcomed it, unfortunately I missed or possibly consciously blocked out the part about the increase in humidity.

I’m not sure what it is, but I just don’t like to feel sweaty and sticky – at least not without good reason. I mean after a workout, a hot session or the sauna, not a problem, jump in a cool shower and all is well, not so on a muggy day, step out of the shower, towel off and you start dripping again before you can apply moisturiser.

Not really the best likeness, lol

So here I am naked and cross legged on the floor in my lounge, the windows are wide open and the artificial gale force wind blowing my hair all over the place is coming from a 40 inch fan next to me. Oh dear, apart from my hair I must look like some fat, little Buddha.

Hehehe, all I need is someone to worship me and feed me ice-cream.

Oh well, one can dream!
