40 degrees in the shade & then the power goes off ...

What a F***ing stinker of a day! The relentless hot weather
has made everyone a tad tetchy & if it wasn't for the fact it's
too hot to move - heads would roll! Ok - for everyone who's
thinking - lucky Bas***d, I'd swap in a minute, it's F***ing
freezing here, etc, etc - No you wouldn't. When you wake up
in the middle of the night & the temperature has dropped to
32 Deg & it's hotter than a sunny afternoon in Benidorm - in
your BEDROOM at 3.00am & sleep is a memory of something
cool people do (as in cold) - no you wouldn't.

To make matters worse - the power goes off. Everyone has their
Air-cons cranked up high, hence the power failure from an overloaded
grid. Forget what happened in Spain - the last time this happened here
the local government was nearly overthrown - so I could be typing
under a new regime tomorrow.

Having said that, it's just too hot to do anything about it; might
write a nasty letter. Nah. Shout at the TV when the offending parties
are explaining what happened & how it's never going to happen again?
Yeah that's it - shout at the tv!

Shouting at the tv has changed the course of politics the world over
& I will not be deprived of my democratic right to do so! It wouldn't be
fair - and not just for me - I would be letting down all the people less
fortunate than myself who don't even have a TV to shout at!

OK - this ones for the proles. Now where's that remote ...
