We are in the middle of the 'wet' season here so we expect it to rain, usually in the form of tropical downpours at this time of the year. Over the last 3 or 4 days this has not been the case. It has been periods of rain with no major storms or sudden downpours. But wet (and very cool) it has been. We have had well over 4" of rain in fact!
One day we managed around 23° as a maximum temp which is around 10° cooler than usual. The ceiling fans have gone off and in some cases the front door shut and the windows closed owing to the cooler weather. In between showers we look at 80%+ humidity which means the towels never get quite 100% dry!
The sun is back today and we are looking at around 28° but there remains a blustery wind out there. With the rain comes dust falling with atmosphere. Now the pool badly needs a vacuum but as it is down to a temp of 23° no one is bursting a boiler to get in for a dip!
The local Community Association gets back down to work today after a 2 month layoff as we have our first Management Committee Meeting tonight which I am chairing. This means a busy day tomorrow getting everything up onto the Association's website which I oversee.
The air conditioner installer is here right now beginning the installation. The sparky will be here in an hour and we can expect to lose power for a short time as the new air con unit gets 'wired in'. Hopefully all will be up and running around lunchtime.
When we bought the little Honda around 15 months ago the driver's floor mat had a rip in it where it is secured to the floor to keep it in place. We asked them to fix it which they did but it was only a temporary fix. The mat actually needed replacing. We grabbed a pair of replacement mats on eBay and they arrived late last week.
It is nice being able to step into the car normally rather than trying not to tear the mat from where it is attached.
Over the last week or so I have done several Kodi boxes and 3 or 4 PC's which have Kodi running on them. Needless to say I have loved every minute of it.
I expect to get back on the bike tomorrow as soon as the place dries out a little and the wind drops. But we will have to wait and see.
