And After All The Heat Comes The Rain!

As the title says, after the heat comes the rain!  It has been a wet week since around Wednesday.  The bike has been put right away so exercising is off the agenda.  Now the biggest hassle we have is  to get the towels after our showers dry enough for the next day.  The humidity is naturally hovering around the 90% mark.

We had almost two inches (50mls) since 9 am yesterday (Thursday) and mid teens the day before.  More heavy rain should continue today and tomorrow!  But we won't be in any need to build an ark just yet, just stay indoors and keep up with things!

I am still waiting for the 'last' quote regarding shutters to come in.  Some want 30% or 40% deposit, others want 50% which is a fair fork out when you just order them.  It is then a 6 week wait until they are built and installed.  Then you pay the rest.

With prices and products all pretty similar, the lower deposit may be a determining factor.  But we just wait and see.

All products have a 10 year warranty whether they be PVC, aluminium, timber or a combination of two.   So the source material all seems to be around as good as each other.

Following the turmoil with Kodi developers being threatened with legal action, Kodi stuff has kept me busy for most of the week.  I have done several setups now.  For people using their laptop to stream movies I have been suggesting the try a program called Tea TV.  If you Google search for it ensure you get an ad-free version if possible.

And another bottling was completed successfully.  Drinks at our place on Monday while it was still warm was a great success.  And I moved into Tuesday after the big night without any major hassles!

And that's about it really.

Trish is at Quilters this morning while I continue to mess around at home.  Moving pot plants out from under the pergola so they get some natural watering from the rain has been one thing to keep me occupied this morning!
