Hot and sunny today with the temperature in the high 20s.
After lunch I had a walk up to and around Soil Hill.( I did not venture down the north side - soft sod what I am).
The west facing Soil Hill 'path' is undiscernibly tough , overgrown with thistles and 'things' - some great colours here, though.
A bit of a perspirational outing and after arriving home, I seemed to have grown a big hairy red balloon above me neck end.
Well maybe not so hairy.

I hear on the telling machine that there has some worldwide IT meltdown today.
Some programmer has got his keyboard skills in a knot - possibly keyed in a binary 0 instead of a binary 1.
In the old days it would have just been a COBOL-sup and affected a few thousand at most.
Today the world comes crashing down.
Some advice from a know-all (me) .
Make sure you have enough 'cash in the attic ' to get by for a while -
Next time - the computer glitch could make the "plastic card thingy (PCT) " give the "reading of the plastic card thingy" (ROTPCT) the cold shoulder.
joke : (well nearly).
Jonny is asked by his English teacher to use the word Tarmacadam in a sentence.

Er bloke asked er "What's that on the deck Eve?
Eve replied "Tarmacadam".
And the bit you have all been waiting for.
