So now that Jaimie's an official full-time
junkie, our fridge must now accommodate not just our vegetables (and beer +
wine) but also Jaimies stash, all £1400 of it! Which is fine except for when our
beloved van fridge decides on a drastic change of style, as if being cool 'is
just sooo last season' and given that its now almost summer being hot is far more
appropriate. NO FRIDGE, NO! Well the down side is we lost all but one of the
doses which need to kept between 2 and 8c, the up is that fridgey has now seen
the error of its ways and is again going with the whole cool thing again. Fingers crossed.
WEATHER UPDATE: So I guess a little
information on the weather is probably necessary at this juncture, well IT'S
HOT! A damn site hotter than Melbourne, hot enough for bananas to be growing
and mangoes to be $10 for a whole tray! And for our poor old A.C cooling system
in the van to be so feebly outmatched that when it does conjure even a wheeze
of cool air the temperature inside the van ensures that by the time the
traitorous gust hits your face it's little more than a short lived clammy mist,
really less of a refreshing fanning of cool, clean air and more like sitting
uncomfortably close to a pubs in-house, senile drunk who won't stop muttering
bitter nothings until your pretty sure you don't actually mind the smell of the
ale but you can never look at a packet of Benson and Hedges or dry roasted
peanuts again for fear of your nostrils fleeing north in sheer terror and
penetrating your brain.
Note: Although nakedness whist driving can
relieve some of the heat, sun lotion is still, if not more necessary inside the
vehicle. Lesson learnt.
