If you have ever drank just one beer through a straw you'd know that a few more would be impossible.
I think it's too cold up here to use a mithril straw... I'd likely get my tongue stuck to it and end up like blitzcraig! 😜

I will definitely be dreaming about the weather down by LK though. Without wind chills tomorrow we're looking at close to -30° (Celsius conversion = negative too much) and around -65° with the wind chill (Celsius = lots of hot coffee needed).

Time to put on the fire plate for warmth and have the dragons keep the hearth nice and warm for the family!

-30°F = -34.44°C
-40°F = -40°C
-65°F = -53.88°C

And lots of hot coffee needed starts at about 08:00 any day.

My Fire plate and legs are in a fire proof sealed room and the Double D's have been very kind not to use any fire breath of late.

Can't complain thought. It has been the coolest summer I recall in 19 years. Dec and Jan are usually like a sauna hear and we are only now getting it.

Example I got up to go and do a stress test today on a bicycle and at 07:30 is was 31.2°C now at 08:15 it is 33.3°C Not sure I want to spend just over an hour on a bus plus walk 4 blocks up hill to so a stress test. It will be a stress test jets to get there. My wife phoned to see if they recommend I go or not. The news is saying Pregnant and Elderly should NOT venture out. I'm not pregnant, I think/hope, and I don't consider myself elderly but every one else does. :(

You know you are old when young girls offer you their seat on the bus. And that's been happening too much of late. {sigh} I politely refuse,

Hmmm... while I don't PvP I might need to grab some freeze potions. I wonder how many would be needed to fill a swimming pool and whether I can afford that! (Oh, plus the cost of the pool too...)

On getting older, I remember going into a restaurant and wondering when I became a "sir" all of a sudden... It was certainly news to me!

Toss em in the pond at Ardesia, just enough to cool it off, not freeze it over.
I got my fins, mask and snorkel ready!

Ummmm, they saw the armour. It's a natural.

OR ...
You you walk in with the Official Naming Committee and they say, "Treat our daddy right or you get a really really really BAD name!" That should work every time.

It is going to be a good night tonight.
It's the first time the temp has dropped below 30°C since Sunday.

Code: Select all

 29 Jan 19 @ 23:55:53 ~
   $ c2f 30

   30°C  =  86.00°F
 
 29 Jan 19 @ 23:56:04 ~
   $ c2f 23

   23°C  =  73.40°F
Sleep well.
