… It rains and you can smell that lovely odour of water hitting hot tarmac - it’s sort of like sweet, dusty steam. If anything reminds me of long summer days when I was a kid, it has to be that. I should have expected it since I finally got around to washing my car yesterday - it always rains after I wash my car, that’s why I do it so infrequently (it has nothing to do with my being lazy at all).

Anyway, just to clarify, Saturday qualified as a John Conners Nice Day - and it’s not often I can say that! I just hope there are plenty more this summer, it’s about time.
