7.30am
28 degrees, clear sky and gusty cool breeze. Sleeping in with this lovely cool
weather.
Tom
rang for a chat. Sandy is still in Geelong with her new grandchild.
More
wandering with the detectors to fill in the morning.
Lunch
36 degrees, warming up again getting ready for the over 40s next week!!
Watched
a 4x4 DVD and learnt two interesting facts. Use a cake of soap to stop a leak
on your fuel tank – it worked for a while on Graham’s car till he went through
too many creeks! Also when cooking steaks use an egg flip rather than tongs and
turn the steak every 15 seconds or so till cooked to your liking. Will try that
out tonight. Also he said to work out if it is cooked hold your thumb against
your forefinger for medium rare and then feel the base of your thumb – your
steak should feel like that when you press on it. Keep going around with your
fingers for the next level and the thumb to pinky is well done – will try that
too.
Quite
day pottering about. Got some more pieces in my jigsaw puzzle.
Cuppa
in the pool as it is up to 39 degrees.
Rang
Mum and Dad for a chat.
Drinks
in the shade of the cottage – lovely breeze.
Dip
in the pool at 7pm as it was still 37 degrees in the van but lovely outside.
Had
BBQ dinner – Steve tried the regular flipping of the steak but this BBQ is a
covered one so it wasn’t as easy. Can’t beat the steak we have been getting
from Woolies – so tender. Put our chairs out on the grass to enjoy the coolness
and watch the stars appear though the moon is quite bright as it will be full
moon tomorrow night. Steve spotted the first satellite then the space station
zoomed over us. Watched it for a long time disappearing to the south east.
No
breeze as we headed into the van but we are comfortable enough with our fans.
