I think I might wear shorts even if the weather’s rubbish

'Sup eveningites, I’m sat working looking out the window and I can see a lovely moon. I would describe it as ‘right’. I’m so looking forward to the weather drying out a bit! Probably just going to have some cheese and stuff for dinner later, so much work to do (this week is improbably busy, can’t complain really but also here I am, complaining).

I bought some sandals in early April, optimistically. They’ve still got the stickers on. I’m determined to wear them this weekend…

I’d quite like it to be warm enough to go sea swimming again

(Yes, there are a fair few people who swim in the sea all year round, but I’m not one of those people)

Oh sea swimming sounds dreamy. I’m pretty much as inland as you can get in England, but, looking forward to warm enough weather for wild swimming.

Likewise there’s folk that wild swim all year round but thats not for me!

It’s honestly perfect. It’s usually 28-38 when I’m here and that is way too much. This suits me well (though the pool is a little cold)

Yeah, I couldn’t deal with those temperatures! Looks perfect at the minute though

The biggest problem with sea swimming is that the sea temperature lags behind the air temperature, so you get a hot day in May, and think it’s a good idea, and you get halfway in before you realise the sea is still really chilly.

I guess the flip side is that it’s still fairly warm in September / October

Ahhhh I see! I’ve never done sea swimming but would love to. Will remember that though for if I ever do get to the coast for a dip!

Swimming in the sea is mega, one of my favourite memories is of swimming off a tiny beach in Cornwall and getting out towards this headland, and suddenly there were cormorants everywhere. Really cool.

The best sea swim I ever did was in the Mediterranean, off a Greek island at night, in a spot where there was phosphorescence in the sea. Crazy magic!

Oh that sounds so so dreamy…how magical.

That also sounds so magical…really want to go sea swimming right about now.

Oh I got something good to share, yesterday I saw a squirrel carrying a chocolate bar (double decker i think) and it jumped up on the wall but then a cat popped up, hissed at the squirrel but I shooed the cat away


A still from the video before the cat noticed the squirrel, could have been a disaster.
