Meet Rupert

Man, it's hotter here today than it was yesterday and there isn't a breath of wind in the air either - it's sweltering and with the prospect of it getting only warmer as the days go on I'll be lucky if I don't ooze into a nice puddle of fat somewhere when I reach my melting point! Arch....

But despite the heat I still go to the gym (I try to go before midday when it's bound to be super dooper hot) and also get around to running a few errands like posting letters and disposing of a few more bags of stuff we don't need, this time extracted from the airing cupboard which has nicely housed an array of linen that will never see the light of day again.

The posty has also been and Sandra has been true to her word and sent a picture of Rupert through to me. It's not a wonderful picture, but it's enough for me to ring her and figure out when would be a good day to go visit her so that we can meet Rupert in person and get and idea of what he's like - we arrange it for Saturday (hopefully the roads should be blissfully quiet with the World Cup being on) and I have to say I'm quite excited :)

I then spend the rest of the afternoon helping a friend with his website (like designing it). He wants to set up an ecommerce bit too, but that probably is beyond what I can help him with, though I will have a go - I'm not used to all this "done for dummies" way of working where some genius has come up with an overly complicated GUI for non-techies to use so they can get results, its a complete abandonment of what I'm used to (working from the ground up) and so looks a bit like Spanish overlaid with Greek to me.

I've also decided I won't be buying monkfish again after a disaster in the kitchen - to expensive and too difficult to cook right (then again I might just be tight and a bad chef) :)
