Thank you, aileth, & also coracle.

Yes, today is going to be 45C. I would appreciate those icy, snowbearing thoughts very much to cool the place down. Yes ice blocks aplenty would be great. I'll probably look out for a new ice-cube tray to catch them in, to keep us all hydrated with lovely icy drinks. Does anyone like Pineapple fruit juice? Or good old-fashioned Passiona*? Tomato juice with squeezes of lemon juice, a drop or two of Tabasco sauce plus a dash of Worcestershire sauce, garnished with ice cubes & celery sticks sounds quite fancy for a celebration in a nice cool place, don't you think? I can't wait for the cool change we are promised tomorrow. Your kind thoughts might make it more of a certainty.
Happy belated birthday to all my fellow NarniaWebbers with birthdays last December and January up to date, and for the remainder of the month. Providing I haven't already melted to a puddle any time soon, I will see you all later in the year.

*Passionfruit flavoured soda. I don't know if you have it elsewhere in the world.
