1st July 2026 Deliverance.

 ~?~

  Wednesday 1st 61F/16C [7.15] Bright overcast. Dry morning but increasingly cloudy. With showers this afternoon. Possibly thundery. 73F/23C in the room. 62F/17C in the greenhouse. Pond water at 71F/22C.

 Up at 5.30 after an occasionally sweaty night. 

 I have to be here around lunchtime for a delivery. I'd like a ride. Not far. I need to shop at another supermarket chain. There isn't a local branch. 

 8.45 It's getting darker. I have watered the plants. Indoors and out. Then stacked the massive paving slabs to make a step outside the new glazed door. Just to get  a feel for scale, width, etc. They need to be properly leveled. Preferably without scraping my shin! Silly old whatsit!

 I have spent the morning working on a solar telescope. I was dizzy mid-morning. So I sat in an armchair and rocked quickly back and forth. From head between my knees, To staring upwards at the ceiling.  Holding each position for over half a minute. Eventually I felt a bit better. 

 13.30 The Abigail's British foods chap has just left in his van. Two bottles of salad cream have gone in the fridge. We always have a good chat. I'll go shopping this afternoon. 

 16.45 Back from the village supermarkets. I drove there. 

 Dinner was a salmon pasty with chips and peas.
